Pros

Close to home. Clean envt. Free beverages

Cons

No structure, very unorganized management. Make you work your tail off for no pay. They do not have efficient systems. Use queries to get work done. Management is rude and short. Will fire you on the spot w/ out any verbal or written warnings. Some folks are there until midnight on weekends. Drive past parking lot on Sat and Sundays and folks are there until 5pm.
