Pros

7.5 M-F work week Great Benefits Some friendly employees

Cons

Older Management don't care and act like the "walking dead" Minimal room for advancement. State mandated pay raises - about 1% - 2% annually Supervisors/NASHVILLE will protect there own behinds before an employee Lots AND LOTS of ppwk and outdated computer systems. I had to turn in 3 - 4 "time-sheets" all asking for same info but in different ways.
