hard work doesn't always pay off

Pros

Co workers are usually pretty cool. It can be a great place to work if you have the right managers.

Cons

For most, it takes a very long time to move up. the people that usually move up are the ones that kiss a little ass. the company looks for any excuse to not pay you overtime. raises only come every 1000 hours and are usually about $.30-.80 an hour.

Getting paid a good amount for a decent amount of work. Benefits even for those that are part time and a good opportunity for advancement.

Sometimes management sets unreasonable goals to accomplish. Some managers are far less fair than others and favortisim runs rampant
