Pros

Abundance of overtime if wanted. Experience in different fields . Working in the field helps with understanding more than abstract work. Paid overtime.

Cons

Way to much overtime Pulled in many different directions to where many jobs do not get finished because of the need to take care of emergent issues. Very little room for moving up in the company Salary is only average for all the stress involved.

Pros

As much as this company allows you to learn, use this opportunity for experience and for your resume so you can move on to better things.

Cons

Lots of micromanaging and also unfairness. Overwhlemed with work and training and bosses believe we got the time for all of it. They give certain people, usually the new employees, do more than their job title asked for because they don't trust them or because they take advantage. Older employees don't need to do such training because they are relatives. Severely underpaid and management believes getting a promotion with little pay and more overtime makes up for your title. Management believes they are better than you and don't like being at fault and give the most outlandish excuse for any problems that arise.
