Pros

Base pay is high and federal holidays

Cons

Micromanaged to hell. Every click is recorded and lots of watching behind your back. Once was away ten minutes and got yelled at. Supervisors and managers don't focus on helping or training employees but look for ways to undermine. Not a relaxed workplace. Not much PTO. Extremely high turnover from awful atmosphere and management.
