Pros

-pay rate a semi good amount above minimum -if a full time employee some of the benefits are pretty good -diversity

Cons

-if not in a supervisor/management role than you do not receive any type of review and/or potential raises or incentives, even when deserved by those whom are just at an associate level -if you’re not a full time employee than you are at risk of getting hours cut drastically during what they call their “down season” or “down time”, meaning you could go from a full 40 or more hours a week down to 8 per week -as much as it is diverse there is a lot of situations that do not get handled equally and/or fairly, meaning in most cases, sometimes what is good for one might not be good for another
