Pros

The customers are amazing and the job itself is very easy and doesn’t demand much work.

Cons

I was terminated after “complaining” about management and was treated unfairly until I had to leave. They were not trying to keep me in the company after I started complaining that I haven’t gotten raise in 2 years.
