Pros

Great shows, 3-day weekends, wonderful and talented staff

Cons

Salaries are way below industry standards, the CEO micromanages the staff instead of focusing on fundraising, good work is never rewarded by the CEO - not even with an acknowledgment or simple "thank you" and certainly not with any kind of raise.

Pros

Scheduling is flexible, management is reasonable, and they have apparently have improved their shift trade system.

Cons

I don't really like the patrons there, I don't like the colleagues I work with, and the pay is barely above minimum wage.
