Pros

They offer a great work environment where you can make friends but also work hard. I really appreciate the training they gave at the beginning. It truly prepares you for working there. Also during the peak season, hours are plentiful and even if you are part time, you can get hours that are very close to full time.

Cons

Apparently during off season, it is very difficult to receive hours. Also, because their standards for guest service are so high, what would wow people at another job is considered mandatory.

Pros

Universal is a company who cares about its people and people care about the company. I was amazed by the number of people who had been there for years! There are SO many perks. Free movies, park passes, rewards, bonuses, holiday gifts, etc. You work hard and do a good job and people notice. Raises and promotions can happen very quickly. You are a team member and very well treated...at every level. Uniforms are provided EVERY day. You pick them up when you come and drop them off on your way out the door...no laundry or ironing. It is so much fun to work there and if you like amusement parks, it is a great job!

Cons

Working at Universal can be hard work. It is not a job for lazy people or ones who are not "people-friendly". Florida is hot and depending on what you do, you may be outside, standing on your feet for hours. You need to always have a smile on your face and be nice, no matter how you feel!
