Pros

Those who work hard and push themselves to succeed can escalate through the ranks quickly. Lot's of leadership experience to be gained and a decent way to pay the bills in College.

Cons

Management can be very calloused towards employee needs and many of them have an ego. Getting promoted can be a very political process as well since in many cases student managers regulate the promotion process.
