Pros

The hours are nice. You get federal holidays off.

Cons

Benefits are terrible. I got sick this year, and I have the copay insurance. I could not afford the copays to have a the necessary tests done. I had to make a payment plan with the hospital. I still have not met my deductible and it is July. I literally cannot not afford to see the doctor, have any tests done, or even afford the medicine I need to stay alive. Their drug plan (CVS) keeps denying all my meds so I’m paying out of pocket. I can’t afford this anymore. I have never had a job with such terrible insurance. At this point, I might as well not even have insurance. It would be different if I was paid well and could afford it, but no. You get at the max, maybe a 50 cent raise a year. All they did a was Pat themselves on the pack for not raising our insurance premiums, well, they changed our dental insurance and it will not cover anything preexisting and NO dentists in our area even take it, so I’m stuck paying for a useless insurance that this company offers. We had great insurance last year. Not this year. It’s a joke and insulting. I’m goi g broke paying for my medical bills.
