Pros

Money was ok. Thats it.

Cons

Management couldn't tell you the truth if their lives depended on it. It was a revolving door of people coming in and others going out. It's a stepping stone job. Trailers were dangerous and falling apart, no one cared. And don't get injured, you'll just be a inconvenience for whichever manager you decide to tell.
