Pros

It was a good paying job, they allowed me to work most of the summer, and off and on throughout my University Terms.

Cons

The job itself was really physically demanding, and you needed to be really organized in order to finish off the days. While you were also employed by contractors who were working for Loomis. So if you were good there was a possibility to get more shifts.
