Pros

Flexible scheduling for college students, and decent pay with alright benefits Most staff itself were great

Cons

Safety concerns, redundant procedure/policy that isn't followed, pick and choose when to dictate who's doing right/wrong Bad apples here and there that I did not like, and administration along with some unit managers felt suffocating. Could've had more concern when I'd been missing work (sick/car accident) and seemed nobody cared unless I was coming in or not. Favoritism all around if you knew the staffing department, or if you were friends with them.
