Pros of working at Six Flags

Every Day you meet new people. If you work at the shows where the animals are you get to watch for free. Sometimes you get to meet famous people, Its like your in a totally different world arriving inside the park.

Cons of working at Six Flags

The way the managers and supervisors treat the staff that are below them. You are treated like a lowly peasant slave who isn't worthy. You are screamed at and they try to trick you to fire you. I have seen several people fired this way. You must pick up all trash while the managers and Supervisors walk by it. They only allow you to work part time. The time clock is far away from where your at and if your late you get a point

Six Flags Benefits

Free entrance into the park any time you are not working.
