Pros

The local people are great to work with.

Cons

Upper management doesn't understand customer service or company culture. Everything revolved around making a profit, which is understandable. But, if you're going to treat your staff and customers badly, you shouldn't expect to make a profit.

Pros

Can't really name many. Most employees are good people who are friendly and committed.

Cons

The place is being led by someone with a God complex, and how your day goes is depends on how they wake up that morning. If you're not in their good graces you are against them and they will find a way to get you out while still smiling and pretending they are your biggest fan. Really creepy and a bit sadistic. Those of us who have lasted have turned into yes men and women. No other way to survive in this place.
