Pros

I can't think of any pros at this time. I would say the availability of overtime is a pro, but you will be forced to work more overtime than is safe in this environment.

Cons

Staff is nasty to each other. Critical and degrading in front of residents. The mandatory overtime is dangerous. Officers work 16-17 hour shifts. We are working in an environment that you need to be alert, however with just a few hours (literally 3-5 hours) of sleep a night, no one is vigilant. Creates an extremely unsafe environment.

Pros

You're able to learn a lot about what the job offers. Always something new, which is good for the position.

Cons

A lot of the things that needed to be fixed were beyond your control, and working with corporates, sometimes you have to fight for what you want.
