Pros

Good exposure to different aspects of business, telemarketing, stalking competitors, product kmowledge, customer service skill advancement, sales, teamwork, and multitasking.

Cons

Long shift hours No schedule flexibility If your a single parent, forget about needing to leave and tend to your kids, your in a male dominated industry and they expect you to have other people raising your kids so you can slave away and miss out on precious time. Chemical exposure Bad environment- no accommodations, back braces, face masks, safety glasses when dealing with harsh odors, chemicals, and lifting all they want you to lift. Merit increases are small and you don't get bonuses unless you are management. No respect from coworkers who are high school kids, and management does nothing to promote enthusiasm and encouragement in the workplace. If your pregnant, or are a woman of child bearing age, AVOID THIS COMPANY. High discrimination and terrible HR department. They will treat you as a liability and force you to leave or get terminated unfairly.
