Pros

Management usually leaves you alone and depending on your hours you won't have much interactions. Is great for adrenaline and a sense of purpose.

Cons

Management makes poor choices and does not thoroughly investigate allegations. The pay isn't very good and insurance options are horrible.

Pros

Straightforward with their expectations of you leading up and going into the academy.

Cons

There is no room for error. If you’re not in good physical condition and think you’ll improve while in the academy you’re wrong. You need to already be in good shape or they will run you ragged for it. It’s either you’re ready or you’re not and if you’re not then they will make it as miserable as possible to test you and either you quit or they fire you.
