Pros

The people I work with.

Cons

Unbelievable responsibility. UNACCEPTABLE labor hours available to complete the work tasks given. Working off the clock is not talked about but is a secret kept by managment. They keep you absolutely in fear of losing your job .. if you report anyone or anything to HR , they will come for you .. They will fire you.
