Pros

Fun atmosphere Respectful Management who truly care about you as a person Committed to their job Great location Flexible hours and workable with alternate commitments Friendly employees

Cons

Some of the work can be grungy (i.e. scrubbing out trash cans or doing bathroom duty) but those are, at times, the requirements of the job Sometimes work could get monotonous, but your job is what you make of it
