Cons
While the role was fast paced and busy it did not allow for career growth and demanded thin or no margin between assigned tasks and duties. These tasks and duties were implemented by the monthly calendar. Although there were ways to make the calendar clear and efficient, and while the job description includes say within said calendar, little or none was allowed in this role.
