A doorman job is one I enjoy immensely. A decent salary along with great benefits make this a desirable job.

Pros

Meeting interesting people in this field. The benefits are great. Within this economy it is very fortunate to have a job with stability.

Cons

There is little room for growth. Salaries do not go up until the next contract. I have very few negatives for this job. If you're happy with this salary you'll be quite content.

Pros

It's for a good cause. If you're passionate about worker's rights, it's definitely the job for you. I recommend it as a good way to experience social justice organizing.

Cons

Long hours, over worked. You basically do not have a personal life if you work for a union or any kind of a related organization.

Pros

Constant campaigns are the staple of the average SEIU organizer. If you feel that the most important thing in the world is making sure members wages, benefits and working conditions are constantly serviced, this is the job for you.

Cons

However, the job comes with a cost. The management of SEIU is ultimately hypocritical when it comes to the basic rights of employment. Sure, the wages are fair, especially for the kids in their early twenties who make up the vast majority of new hires, as are the benefits for any age range or job. The working conditions of the SEIU are geared for constant performance without rest, 90+ hours a week are very common, you work 13 days straight, and take three days off. If you live far from the campaign, they'll send you home, but the travel time can reduce your time off by a day. Lower management is usually filled with very combative individuals under great pressure to make numbers grow, and they are not unaccustomed to taking their frustrations out on their employees.
