Pros

Paid weekly. Holiday pay (after completion of probation - 45 work days). Free banking/direct deposit enrollment offered. Medical/dental at reasonable price.

Cons

6 day work weeks. Majority of non-English speaking workers. Medical/dental not immediately available. Medical/dental taken away of not working 40+ hours/week. Commute is less than desirable. Employee parking is a joke & major safety concern (A railroad crossing is at the entrance/exit of the facility).
