Pros

Room to grow within company

Cons

The company caps raises at 10% of your current base pay, so even if you work hard for a promotion you'll likely be compensated far less then if they hire someone brand new with no experience. Hours keep getting cut for part time employees but the company keeps hiring new people instead of giving existing personnel the hours. No rotating schedule to provide weekends off.
