Pros

The company has some of the highest starting pay for the area.And they always have job openings.

Cons

They are always short staffed because they fired or furloughed most of the staff in 2020. The toxic work environment is also driving away those that remain while causing any new workers entering the company to leave before their first 90 days are up.
