Pros

I was a part time employee in the Processing Department and they allowed me to have flexibility with my schedule.

Cons

They don't do a lot of internal promoting. They LOVE to hire from outside but they love to use the "horse and carrot" trick for the internal employees. If you would like to transfer from part-time to full-time, keep on dreaming.
