Pros

Fun and playful job atmosphere where you can sometimes be a part of events held at the Bar or of site

Cons

Very low pay for hourly staff in the kitchen and its usually understaffed. Hourly employees are hired in as Part Time so the company can refuse to offer you benefits and cut you free if you work to many hours during the year.
