Pros

Easy work, usually you don't go home too tired.

Cons

Scheduling has no idea how to do their job so the hours can be anywhere from 4 months of 6 and 7 day work weeks too maybe only working 3 days of the week. The higherups do not care about the temps in anyway. Some have been a "temp" for years and there is no chance of them getting hired on. The HR guy is a condescending idiot.
