Pros

Ritualistic analyses can be satisfying, in a way.

Cons

Management wants M.S.-level employees for work that should be automated. You will be expected to work tirelessly and accurately without recognition and for poor pay (~$16 per hour). Don't expect to be honest or critical and bode well...inspectors employed for certification purposes are actively deceived. In short...every day is a new type of hell... For $16 an hour, without a consistent expectation of when you'll be allowed to leave. Employees throw toilet paper on the ground in the bathroom...and urinate all over the seats. We aren't allowed to have paper towels. ...sexism and racism are rampant. And yes, as a prior reviewer mentioned, employees hesitate to use the restroom for fear of declining productivity. Passive aggression is also a problem; even if it's several hours after the end of your shift, other employees may guilt-trip you for leaving, and, eventually, you'll internalize this and worry about taking earned vacation (and going to the disgusting bathroom). Every employee that I know in my department is constantly applying for another job.

Pros

It has taught me what I do not want in an employer It gave me experience for way better opportunities It made me realize that being a good worker doesn’t always mean being rewarded

Cons

When injured from being overworked and exhausted , they treated me like trash When compassion fatigue hit— they judged and questioned whether I belonged there rather than understood People make up rumors about you even if you didn’t do anything (it’s like a catty high school in there) Having one bad day constitutes you getting pulled in the office to be scolded If you’re a good worker, and you get your stuff done efficiently, they stuff you with more work Many individuals treat the animals like trash and are covered up by management if they are the “favorites” Most of the trainers there are absolutely catty people and will talk behind your back if you’re “too slow” or “not learning fast enough”
