Pros

Lots of responsibility, very dynamic, great opportunity to learn a lot in a first jobs (operations, unions, staffing, oversight, delegation, responsibility, budgets, planning).

Cons

If you don't like being outdoors, could be a negative (I loved it). Union employees can be challenging, but can be overcome by building great relationships with them.
