Pros

I can't think of any

Cons

Run you on a skeleton crew no payroll hours, DMs are lazy and don't care about managers or their team just results. Crazy high expectations if you are a store manager unless you can get a crew of people who all have to be part time with minimum wage work/stick around you are going to be living at your store hope you don't have a family cause you wont see them.
