Pros
The main benefit is getting the school vacations off and rarely working late nights or weekends. Other than that there isn't much for pros.
Cons
There is a problem with the school vacations because you do not get paid over summer, so you either try to live off of unemployment, which is impossible, or try to find a job which will employ you just for the summer (equally hard in most cases). The management team is hit and miss. Some are decent people, easy to deal with and encouraging, while the majority are so overbearing and impossible to work with it's ridiculous. The CEO Kevin lies to everyone. When I was first hired I was promised bonuses and raises every semester/year and encouraged to be under budget (yeah, right) and I would reap the benefits. I know they makes tons of money off the house I work for and much more off the other houses around campus. They promise so much to the houses then trap them into contracts and create an impossible budget for chefs to meet what's required/promised which leads the house to be dissatisfied. They claim they want/make fresh from scratch food and don't allot enough money for the chef to deliver. Also, they badger the chefs about their menus if they don't feel they are acceptable, even when certain items are requested by the house. Not given a bigger budget to accommodate chapter dinners which can double, triple and sometimes quadruple the number of members you have to feed. Overall I enjoy what I do and the members appreciate me but the actual job working for this company is terrible.
