Pros

Lots of free food (also a con for your waist line!) Great people to work with - especially on back of the house, front of the house side Somewhat flexible for a food-related job Some holidays off (also rare for a food job) Decent benefits

Cons

Really long days - 10 hour minimum Early mornings/late nights Lots of the regular cons with the food industry Too much free food (see #1 above) Much of upper management sucks - out of touch, too much money, very much like congress - old, white rich men You can get burned out easily
