Pros

Can't think of any. n/a.

Cons

- Most employees work there are temps and trying to get by every day. - Company is way behind in works so much when I first joined, after almost half year, when I leave, they are still behind, Amazing. - No body knows who is doing what, Managements don't care. - Some employees are really bad, no respects for each other. company keeps hiring unqualified temps. - Company doesn't care about their customers, and employees. Overall, strongly not recommend, never try to hire temps to perm no matter how hard you work, how well you perform. Management really like employees who try to kiss up.
