Pros

Good benefits plan and pension plan is a rarity so consider staying the five years for vesting. Good learning experience and a good first step to career.

Cons

Have to be underpaid for five years to vest pension plan. This is a good stepping stone for a career in entertainment/labor but unless you're in the tail end of your career and looking to coast to retirement, this is a 2-3yr pitstop.
