Pros

Coworkers are awesome Health benefits are very good 24/7 work scheduling options Unable to work with others is rewarded by being given less work and promotional opportunities

Cons

Morale is VERY low (everybody hates it there and is desperately looking to leave) Leadership is absolutely clueless about their jobs Leadership is clueless about the jobs of those they over see Leadership terminates people who aren't brown nosing or who point out issues they're having SOPs don't make sense and training is non existent Leadership laughs at you when you bring up struggles you're having at work They hire from outside instead of promoting from within, so the position you're at now will be the position you stay at as long as you work there
