Pros

The people you work with are great and amazing. If you enjoy being outside and meeting new people it's great. The pay is good for such an easy job and depending on the location you work the view and scenery is amazing.

Cons

The management at the Santa Monica needs some work. They can be overbearing as well as try to spy on employees in the field. They criticize more than they would congratulate you.

Pros

This is one of the few jobs in the world where the city is your office. You get to meet new people, network with businesses and learn a lot about different cultures and social classes. This job has definitely increased my confidence in public speaking and conflict resolution. This has definitely been one of the best jobs I've had since the military and it gives you the opportunity to change things in your community for the better instead of just standing by complaining about it.

Cons

Certain individuals know their not being micro-managed and they try to hide out. Team work is the key and if one worker is slacking it makes it harder on all of us and I'm not sure if they realize that the actions of one team member is a reflection of us as a whole. Also gradual improvement is ok. Being here under previous management forcing things to happen to fast causes undue stress. While we need discipline and structure, you have to have fun and love what you do. Basically a balance needs to be established which we are working on now.
