Pros

Free Popcorn, free Movies, You hit rock bottom job wise so its only up from there, misery forms good friendships

Cons

Low wages, the managers are a mixed bag of terrible and nice. Some of them are aight, but a lot of them just play on their phones all day and try and make the others stay busy so they look good. Customers are equally as bad but in a different way. Most of them are super duper duper rich and they will complain about prices and expect you to care. Some of them are really nice though. Corporate is somehow worse, in some sick combination of the uber rich entitled customers and the bad no work all credit managers. If you get stuck doing concession your life is gonna be miserable, you are the popcorn slave. Fetch the butter! If you get usher you get to sweep and watch movies all day. Same pay for both.

Pros

Free movies, laid back, but good management, fun co-workers, discounted and sometimes free food and drinks, and typically low pressure environment

Cons

Low pay, lack of hours, corporate complains about lack of sales but never spends money to help the theater stay relevant to customers and competitive to the multitude of other theaters nearby. Our location is old and a bit worn down and we lost a lot of our crowds and customers to new, better theaters being built in the area, which cut our hours and sometimes we would be severely understaffed and then when you would get a rush of people, it would be stressful. Also, because the theater was old, EVERYTHING would break: marquis, overhead projectors, popcorn machine, and even the air-conditioning at one point (corporate refuses to just replace/update our theater).
