Pros

I felt like a part of the Universal team. I enjoyed being a wizard and sharing my love of Harry Potter with guests from around the world. The environment was fast paced and if you were motivated you could move up the ladder fairly quickly. The perks include free admission into both parks, Sea World and Busch Gardens.

Cons

The stress was not worth the pay. My schedule was like a roller coaster; depending on the season I was either clocking in at 4 am for early park admission or clocking out at 2 am for special events and I never had the same days off. Make sure you're not hitting overtime because it's not approved. Most guests are pleasant or at least neutral but some won't hesitate to yell in your face or call you or other guests unacceptable derogatory names.

Pros

Free stuff they would send to you. Easy money because you weren't required to do much.

Cons

The communication between your boss sis terrible. I would go a couple of weeks without getting a response through email.
