Pros
If you know the right people, you can move up in the company. Some of the executives will really listen to what you have to say, some of them just dance around questions and concerns and give non-answers.
Cons
Very little work/life balance for any management positions now. As a manager you never really have a day off, and if you do, you come back to millions of emails. The company has been making several drastic changes playing around with the management structure, such as demoting managers and adding more to the plates of existing ones with creating this MGM position (without really thinking it through how it would work - it's been a disaster everywhere, but whenever anyone speaks up, upper management always turns it around on us and says it's because of the strength of the managers and their teams if they can't make it work) and DM's having to take on more and more. Company has said they are planning to franchise out properties but won't say what that will mean for the staff, makes people very nervous for their job security.
