Pros

Everyone was very kind and the manager was very flexible with our position.

Cons

If you are on call and then work a certain number of hours you would be terminated. If you didn't work up to finals week you would be terminated. If you didn't want to work throughout the summer you were basically terminated because they were not accepting two week notices.
