Pros

-Free movies -Free posters if you perform well -Employee screenings -You get about 5 miles of steps in on an usher shift -50% off concessions -Generally flexible -Shifts can be pretty chill if the conditions are right. We were understaffed so it meant more on your plate, but if you managed all your tasks right, unless it was exceptionally busy/chaotic, it wasn't bad. -If you can keep yourself aware and on top of things, you can read during slow moments -I feel like my management tried their best, they were kind enough, but there are times where they definitely got suckered in to the more corporate side of the company and made floor staff work worse than it needed to be

Cons

-You get your schedule one week at a time, and it's different every week. It's ridiculous -No moving up, shift leads weren't even a position at my location, so unless you want to dedicate your entire life to a theater you'll stay as floor staff. -Regularly working late, often midnight or later if you do late close -If you get a concessions shift, you spend your whole shift stuck in a 5ft wide cattle chute -Usher and concessions are not separate positions, you must get trained for your OLCC & food handler's and once you do, you regularly have to dissasemble and reassemble the popcorn popper. This includes sweeping popcorn dust under water boiling to 400° in the kettle and getting hot grease all over your hands, etc. Burns are guaranteed when you're getting started. They will generally disregard your preference between usher/con. -My location was a lower-priority one, so when the lobby AC was broken all summer, or our ice machine broke, or we didn't have up-to-date menus, we just had to deal with it, for months. -Don't expect extra effort to go noticed -Micromanagement and pushing to sell promos every transaction -At smaller locations, expect to perform the work of 2-3 employees
