Pros

Management seemed like they were very encouraged to explain company decisions very thoroughly. I felt as much a part of the company as I think any part-time employee could. Pay was above minimum wage.

Cons

Both locations I worked at felt very understaffed and the lower management seemed very stressed to meet unreasonable demands. As a result as a part-time employee I was constantly pressured to pick up far more hours than I could actually work. I felt very disposable, every new idea was pushed with the idea of "do this or you'll be terminated"
