Pros

Encouraged people to become more involved and contribute to Greenpeace. Got paid hourly whether or not they decided to donate.

Cons

Very scripted, would get additional training if I did meet quota. Lots of walking, sometimes in rain/heat. Did not feel comfortable going door to door past 7pm. But during the day a lot of people were at work.
