Pros

Signing paperwork to work hard prevents protections from injuries. Once your body gets hurt and you're physically incapable of working the same job you've worked. You're pushed out to disabiliy. The management pushes that you get harassed by coworkers. They lie to management, they persist with the harassment. You need a lawyer just to sign papers , their contract just to accept the position. Never sign a document without a LAWYER'S DIRECTION, just to start working for this company. The pay is average for a corporation. Does not require any education. Offers insurance, free travel and they insure even a boyfriend or girlfriend. They don't check for marriage license.

Cons

Work hard, debilitate your own body for the company, they don't let you work under a disabiliy protection they push you out. They lie and file negative files against to use later when they need to. They work you without sufficient manpower so that leaves you susceptible to injuries. They don't pay while you wait for disabiliy to approve you. They pay a check for a little while. The only way to make it thru hardships and emergencies, is to save every penny after you pay the few bills to survive. Nothing more. Nepotism is the way a person moves to a management position. They do not look at education. They have their lawyer's call you and lie that they're with the union.

Super Duper Low Moral

Pros

Excellent Pay, Great co-workers, metro accessible, parking incentives, paid training

Cons

No room to grow. Ideas are shot down. To many personal relationships amongst the management which prohibits the "business" being run properly. In he midst of know cuts, moral has sunk to an all time low. Haven't been with the company for a long time but since my start date the moral has been horrible. Hard to come into a place with a positive attitude when no one is happy.
