Pros

Great co workers, good entry level job for a high schooler

Cons

Upper management that doesn’t see you work decides if you get a pay raise or not. Wages from the 1990s having people do more work for less pay. Favoritism in management No flexibility in scheduling Management is overworked No yearly pay raises for employees No repercussions for employees that harass other employees
