Pros
Lots of freebies and swag to take home.
Cons
Assistants treated very poorly and many are fired for miniscule mistakes. I was hired with a relevant bachelor's degree, worked at the company for 1.5 years and can't say I learned much about the world of personal publicity. In fact, when I specifically asked for learning opportunities I was shut down. It felt more like working in a sorority where people were judged by their looks and ability to be "gophers" versus critical thinking skills, willingness to learn, and work ethic. Not a positive or team-like environment but rather incredibly fake and phony.
