Pros

Low paid, but simple part-time job.

Cons

Management does not pay accurately according to the hours work. Employee has to be on top of the hours at all times. Unnecessary micromanagement. The owners want to make money, so they tell all parents that their child has to start from the beginning, even when that is not true.
