Pros

Coworkers are some of the best people you will meet

Cons

You will work your as off doing hard labor and be treated like absolute garbage for it. If your contracted they will in fact just throw you out like trash. I broke my finger on a steel door in the vivarium and that door never got fixed and several other doors shared similar issues. They don't care for animal welfare, every single room in that vivarium has black mold and they ignore the issue often caulking over the mold. They hide medical scares from front line workers so they don't even know what's going on and yell at them when they do something wrong. Oh and don't come in if your sick but we don't care if you bring in a doctor's note we will fire you anyway :)
