Pros

Management genuinely cares about everyone working under them and are more than willing to make accommodations based on schedule, mental health, and more. The workplace is incredibly inclusive, especially for members of the LGBT community and employees with extra needs caused by mental and/or physical disabilities. You often get to sit at your job, which can’t be said for most opening retail positions

Cons

Occasional rude guests, very strict no phones policy

Pros

Job attracts creative a fun individuals!

Cons

Management is incompetent, often scheduling 6-7 days in a row with a single day as a break before working you more. The job pays far too little to "disrupt the entertainment industry" The job operates more akin to a cult forcing you to memorize and recite its tenets within a month to keep the job. Despite the company acting like they are a huge deal, almost none of their systems work efficiently or effectively, not even to get into how often the games themselves are broken. They keep you going with promises that within just a few short years, YOU can be managing your own location where you can exploit your own employees with a sub livable wage for 70K a year. There are more competent and better escape rooms to work for, avoid this one like the plague it is.
