Pros

If you are single and hate being home it's a great job. You can make up to $10,000 a month.

Cons

You are constantly being watch by managers and they WILL lie to get you in trouble! You are never home, so it sucks if you have kids.

Pros

Fair minded and supportive management. Not directly involved in RR management, so did not have the same hours or demands as many do.

Cons

None really--large publicly held company. Working on a contract basis, so can't speak to benefits.
