Pros

I worked here while I was attending college, it had pretty flexible scheduling.

Cons

It was pretty unorganized, other employees kind of did what the wanted to. There was definitely favoritism. During the winter is was soooo slow, barely made money, sometimes leaving an weekday evening shift with less than 50$.
