Pros
Makes you value life a lot more. But like the sauna or the tanning bed...don't stay in for too long.
Cons
Looking towards the sweet release of death. The most backwards run company I've had the displeasure of working for. It's a private company so the owner's (Andrew) word is the law. I can deal what that. The strange part is HR has the first and last say on everything else. Huh? They will 'layoff' anyone at anytime without warning. Even some of the managers has no clue it was coming. They treat everyone like a 2-year old child that can't be trusted. Salary employees has to clock in and out. And if you didn't do your 40 hr for the week, you'll be lucky if you only got called in to the manager's office. Think 'heartless' is a required skill in the HR job postings. They make all the witches and evil step-mothers in the fairy tails seem like Mother Teresa. The rest of the upper management doesn't have a pair of brass balls among them. They only say what they think those above the food chain wants to hear.
