  • Best thing

    -Accommodation included
    -uni-like experience

    Worst thing

    Managers may treat you horrible, when understaffed you are treated like cheap labour and you will be working 10 hour days with only 1 day off a week

    No work life balance, working 6 days a week is stressful and there is not much in the area for you to do
