Pros

Weekly pay Monday through Friday Wide range of benefits

Cons

Management Employees that quit half way on their first day When more than 5/6 employees don’t show up just be ready to be worked to the bone with no help when you ask management to hire people who will actually work. You literally have to go through interviews just for them to hire from “outside” rather than hire within. The managers get with their favorite supervisors and talk about the other supervisors who don’t perform well. I feel like the supervisors are better than the managers tbh.
