Pros

Flexible schedules is really the only good thing I can think of.

Cons

Too much red tape when it comes to efficiently getting projects done, it doesn't matter if you can demonstrate a better and more efficient way of doing something, you have to do it their way, even if it doesn't work. Rather than fix these issues, management would rather micro-manage things, like how we count down a register, bathroom breaks, and what kind of tape we use. Also, unless the district manager is your drinking buddy, golfing buddy, or unless you are dating someone in management, you can forget about ever getting a promotion. If you are part time, there are no health benefits.
