Pros

I liked working outdoors and around the community. The company works extensively with the homeless population as part of my job I had to check on the homeless in my designated area so I would really get to know them and it felt good being able to help them when they were in need. Also, I was cleaning and beautifying an urban area that was blocks from my own home. The whole experience gave me a new respect for the beauty of my city. I really liked this job.

Cons

Supervisors were terrible. You are assigned a number for use over the radio but that number soon becomes your name. The supervisors refuse to view ambassadors as their equals, creating an extremely toxic work environment of us vs. them. I did not feel respected as a human being and was often talked down to. Whites and males are promoted more easily to positions of power all the lowest paying positions belong to minority females.
