Pros

Flexible if you have other jobs to do

Cons

Very unorganized. Design team runs on minimal instruction and communication. They have no back-up file system for older jobs, or current ones, so if the system crashes you have to start all over again. Many of your approvals are based on things printed on pieces of loose paper so the owner can review. Owner talks smack about everyone and anyone that isn't himself (clients and staff alike). Forget cleaning and organizing your desk, that is frowned upon, and you will get asked why you have so much time to clean where there are design jobs to do (Even when you've completed all of your orders at hand). You won't actually know how much you make until you get your first paycheck, and literally the owner to make him tell you. Owner doesn't appreciate any of his staff unless you are a troubled boy from high school.

It was a job.

Pros

Honestly? I liked the work. Folding shirts, packaging, screen-printing, Dye-sub, it was all enjoyable, meditative, physical work. My coworkers were chill, both the younger ones and the older ones. Once I knew what I was doing, I enjoyed my tasks. I didn't actually end up doing any computer graphic design work, if you're wondering, but that was fine. I like folding shirts well enough. Also, this is a low bar to clear, but when I was off the clock I was off the clock. I wasn't asked to do more work than that.

Cons

That said, the communication was not great. I spent a lot of time, standing around, not knowing what to do because the only one who knew what I should be doing was the Boss, and he wasn't around all the time, and was sometimes hard to find. I had to do so much meaningless busywork just to keep myself from getting bored. On top of that, the Boss had an occasional mean-streak. He'd sometimes humiliate his employees, he'd pick fights with some of my coworkers if he knew how to get under their skin, being around him often felt volatile and uncomfortable. I had a couple weird interactions with him too. I was also always throwing out his half-drunk sodas. Like, c'mon, man. This is supposed to be a place of business.

Pros

You definitely learn a lot about the process of printing clothes.

Cons

Boss and most worker were sexist and don’t want to let you learn anymore than the bare minimum if you’re female.
