Pros

Kids are always excited and families are nice.

Cons

I worked here from June to November 2024 and I worked in the Kids Room as an Attendant. My manager never communicated any issues regarding my conduct at work. They wrongfully terminated me without any warning for allegedly abandoning my post twice. One of the offenses was based on information that was not communicated to me prior, and the second offense was FALSE. I felt exploited and misled as I was under the impression that this would be a more long term position.
