Pros

Great Benefit of free-meal Great co-workers (excluding management) Lots of overtime (BUT it's also in cons) Great place to work for - only because I'm working in the museum.

Cons

Old fashioned & Stubborn upper management Unorganized company Inconsistent food in the restaurant to serve the guests No Management support seen because they are TOO busy 'tasting' the food (Really, it's just eating - at least 5 times daily is eating) Inconsistent staff meals (sometimes blob and next thing ) Too many supervisors & managers, yet lack entry level staffs to get through the daily operations, so lots of overtime whenever the managers call you in. Find yourself working while staffing is cut to their standard of module -- ratio of 1 cashier, 1 server/attendant, 1 dishwasher (if lucky 2), 2 cooks, and 3 managers serving 1000+ guests when in season and about 500+ guests when in school time.

Ok hours, people are kinda cool

Cons

Typical too much management, head stuck in their laptops doing nothing then over explaining or crying about nothing - the amount of nepotism would make the Romans blush.
