Pros

Fun atmosphere to work in. It is a blast learning the in-and-out of how to run a theatre. The ability to give customers a great movie experience is very rewarding. Free movies and half off concessions. Great team work mentality

Cons

Can be very stressful at times. Company tries to hire as many part-time as possible with very few opportunities to get a full-time position. Even at the manager level. Company is a revolving door. Pay is very inadequate. Day to day operations are constantly being adjusted in order to make maximum profit with lowest amount of staff by people hundreds of miles away. Employees are constantly being sent home to help "make hours".

Pros

The initial role offers good experience in sales and customer service, but the benefits are overshadowed by internal management failures.

Cons

The primary issue lies in the disconnect between local management and corporate HR, specifically regarding off-boarding and payroll accuracy. I submitted a formal two-week notice which was reportedly never filed by my manager. This resulted in an "ineligible for rehire" status despite my following all proper protocols. Furthermore, communication from Corporate is inconsistent and contradictory. I was told both that my notice was received but my two weeks were incomplete, and then later told that no notice was submitted at all. Even with physical proof of attendance (after a manager failed to adjust a manual clock-in as promised) and proof of the submitted notice, Corporate refused to correct the record.
