Pros

You're outside all day, which, in the Bay Area is a perk. There's opportunity to travel and canvas different places. A very diverse, inspirational group of people tend to flock to work for them. You learn a ton of soft skills that translate everywhere in your life.

Cons

Physically and emotionally exhausting, Hard to balance with school, but do-able. Some times confrontational work depending on the intent of the person who stops to talk to you, luckily when you street canvas, you're hardly ever alone.
