Pros

Are able to be around an industry you choose to love. If love athletics you are in the perfect field.

Cons

Growth becomes stagnant depending on availability. A lot of responsibility for little pay. Not enough acknowledgment. Product set is more recreational and could only service the customer to a certain point.

Pros

Most employees were really fun to work with, life/work balance was great, taught me good life skills, good first job for work experience.

Cons

Barely got scheduled (pretty sure my location was way over employed), occasional rude and entitled costumers (especially during the holidays), could get very slow and boring at times, sketchy area, overal, not a great job if you're looking for something that pays well.
