Pros

I guess, being employed for a brief period of time.

Cons

As a new employee I made these observations: Confusion because of conflicting instructions. Employees must be self-trained. No clear chain of command (no idea who supervisor was) Unprofessional communications (group text messages after10pm and exposing private name/phone information with strangers) An environment of chaos every time I visited the office. Left hand doesn't seem to know what the right hand is doing.

Pros

The schedule is extremely flexible and can easily fit around another part-time job or personal commitments. Supervisors were very supportive.

Cons

They do pat well, however was quoted a higher rate of pay than actually was paid. This happened for both census jobs in 2009 and 2019. The money was still good though.
