Pros

If hours are what you are looking for, then hours are what you will get.

Cons

Management is lacking in organization. Six day work week is B@llSh&t. I was hired under the false pretense of a five day work week. 8 weeks into employment, I reported to work Wednesday my scheduled start of the week to be informed by management that I was now to be working M,Tu,We,Fr,Sa,Su. To say the least I was not happy. to be informed at

Pros

Potential to make good money

Cons

You name it. They require 60+ hours a week. They are always "functioning" at emergency level and scrambling. All new upper management makes uninformed decisions on how to operate without knowing the consequences or bothering to ask the employees that could offer insight on better processes with lowered negative impacts. No appreciation for people who have experience with the company and have useful knowledge that is gained only over time. Their solution is always to bring in someone new at a high level to bark orders without knowing processes. In my 20+ years in the workforce, I have never seen a company so poorly run. It is always in total chaos, and most everyone is trying to fake like they know what is going on... and the people who actually do know are never heard. They should have their doors shut. Sexism is rampant. People are literally cussed and yelled at and told they are stupid loudly and publicly by management. Lazy people who talk big game and do no work get promoted. People who work hard and care about the company either burn out, leave from frustration, or get fired for no reason. It is that ridiculous. If you go to work here, just plan on using high-school social skills, being dishonest and ignoring any desire to do quality work. That's the only way you will succeed with this company.
