Pros

The pay is decent, benefits are nice and the people are fun to work with. The hours -- at least the scheduled hours -- are great. Classic 3-4 schedule; however you may end up working 6 to 7 days per week.

Cons

There is a high turnover ratio at the Laurel position. You will be worked long and hard. Lunch break may or may not happen. Sleeping in the guard shack overnight highly recommended.

Pros

the experience will shine on your resume, and definitely a wow factor. the company does pay a great deal of attention to internal communication, and form a sense of unity. overall the corporate culture is awesome.

Cons

as happening in every major corporate, it requires some deal of "care and handling" of what to say, what to wear and what to do on a day to day basis to secure the job.
