Pros

Our product changes every week, and brings in a new crowd and atmosphere with it. It is a fun, job that promotes from within. So with determination, and hard work, becoming a manager is a practical goal. It is very flexible, so going to school, or working a second job is easy with Cinemark. Though the schedule is not fixed. Free movie passes are also a benefit to employees that work there. If you enjoy movies, it's a fun job. It is also 100% trainable. To become management, all you need is a high school diploma, and motivation. It is also good customer service, and sales experience.

Cons

Corporate looks at you like a number, and less of a person. Once things go above the GM there is very little sympathy, or empathy for Cinemark's employees. They are very detached from the actual work that it's employees do, and they cannot relate to issues that arise from customers or otherwise. They expect policy to be enforced. But if any customer complains against the policy, they take a very hands off approach. I also believe that Cinemark horribly underpays it's employees. And, just like any customer service business, customers can be ruthless.
