Pros

It's a paycheck. Average benefit package. If you want to relive your high school days this is the place to be. You could wear your pajamas to work.

Cons

So many established employees have left the company in the past year that some departments can't even function properly. The marketing department is a prime example of this. This company is so desperate for employees, that if you can pee in a cup and have a pulse you will be hired. Some departments have a higher turnover rate than the fast food industry. The amount of disrespect you will receive from upper management is sickening. All this company cares about is making the shareholders happy. This means that they will do everything in their power to screw you out of bonuses, screw you out of pay increases, and screw you out of moving up in the company. It's the reasons why so many people have left and are looking to leave.

Pros

No background checks. Good for people needing a job quickly.

Cons

Where to start? Poor leadership on all levels. A bunch of talk about quality and the customer but are happy pushing out inferior product and dealing with it later, but then blame all the workers (via no quarterly bonus due to impossible metrics they have little/ no control over) instead of correcting the workers responsible. They are SO CHEAP. Cheap in pay, cheap in providing what employees need in a timely manner or if ever, cheap in benefits, cheap all the way around. They want drones, not humans. Very high turnover rate. A lot of promises and little follow up. If you sign up for the annual company picnic and cant make it, they take money directly out of your check for each person signed up to go. Poor training. Reactive, not proactive.
