Pros

Great food and culture. Food is clean and healthy and you learn a lot about what “healthy” means. Clean food that is great for you. Terrible to learn how bad food can be in the US

Cons

Horrible internal leadership. Goes through managers like crazy due to gas lighting them harassing them. HR does nothing as it’s accepted for workers to be treated that way.
