Pros

35 hour work week with paid holidays off. Nice discount on overpriced products. Two times a year you get $500 worth of free products.

Cons

If you are not a manager you are non existent. There is no opportunity to grow or even be heard. If you have an idea you are considered a threat to the management. Pay rate is low, benefits costs are high. Raises average 1% yearly. Stale environment.
