Pros

Different shifts available which were helpful to some people who needed flexibility. Fellow employees were nice and made the best of the situation.

Cons

Strange vacation choosing process where you were unable to take days off because people who had completely different jobs than you were off. No coffee/silverware in the office due to cutting costs. Would often be very slow early in the week and then busy later requiring people to come in Saturday/Sunday which was usually due to poor communication and planning. General morale was pretty low and there were blanket 1% raises which was frustrating for the few employees who definitely worked harder than others. Many people had been there for years (20/30) and were very resistant to changes that are necessary to stay competitive in the industry.
