Pros
Learn a lot and given plenty of opportunity to jump in and lead projects if interested in doing so. Nature of retail architecture allows you to see the entirety of the construction process. Decent pay, and never stuck doing just one part of a project, instead able to participate in all parts of a project's process and associated tasks. Great way to be immersed and learn.
Cons
Although decent pay, long hours are expected and these expectations are not always communicated clearly. Distrust and controlling management staff results in micromanagement and a stressful environment. Respect your employees bybrespecting there skills and time.
