Pros

good benefits like health insurance and various gym memberships

short staffed all the time, be prepared to work alone when you should have at least 3 others with you for safety reasons. was hired partime but forced to work full time hours. my position was switched to full time without my permission & was unable to get ahold of HR until i already quit.

Pros

The pay was great but absolutely no job satisfaction

Cons

There is so much turnover in management you need an arrival and departure board to keep it straight. The micromanagement is incredible and decisions only happen at the highest level.
