Pros

Movies! Family and friends screens for big blockbusters, a well-known brand, some of the best benefits I have ever encountered. Salaries are very competitive. The work is rewarding. People are extremely friendly and approachable with no drama. Everyone works as a cohesive team. A great sense of job security.

Cons

The success of the business is largely dependent upon the success of Hollywood. Some years are better than others. Some years miss corporate bonuses. The industry is always in flux.
