Pros

The people are the best part of the job. They are all passionate and care about their work.

Cons

Advancement opportunities require moving frequently. The hours are retail and so you have to work holidays and weekends.

Pros

There are not many that I can think of at the moment, my experience was not so enjoyable for the most part.

Cons

I would say that the lack of work life balance as well as the stringent requirements and political correctness that usually plagues all industries. Well what are you gonna do?
