Pros

Fun experience. You meet fun people and get to experience new things and get to listen to great music all night.

Cons

They lied to us about pay dates. They told us they would pay us no later than two weeks out. So I planned around that. To be paid LATEST two weeks out. Now I’m struggling to make ends meet because of it. I’m stressed out and my payments are going to be late.
