Pros

Co-Workers are mostly fun people to be around. Flexible schedules are easy to get.

Cons

People are disposable at Universal. Safety protocol is frequently ignored, and employees get injured much more often than they should. Management is more concerned with productivity and performance of their department overall than if they are putting their employees' safety at risk. Safety policies get ignored, employees get hurt, and replaced by the next applicants waiting. Many of the employees hurt have lifelong injuries after their stint at Universal. To add insult to the injury, Workman's Compensation laws in Florida are horrible, so employees can end up with a permanent injury, lasting the rest of their lives, costing them a fortune in medical expenses, AND limiting their lifelong earning capabilities. While the employee's life is thrust into a never-ending tailspin, the manager gets promoted, because the department had "higher productivity". If you still want to work here, if ever asked to do ANYTHING that could put your health at risk, you are smarter to refuse and face termination, because you'd get a bigger payout that way than you would get from Florida's lame Workman's Compensation laws -- they work for the employer in Florida!

Pros

Fantastic Benefits, flexible schedule, and can be a fun atmosphere when the day is right. Job is physically easy and depending on the venue, great coworkers.

Cons

Management's don't care about team members. Impossible to developed unless you personally know the hiring manger. While most guest are kind and keep to themselves, the rude guest do not have a problem disrespecting you and getting away with it.
