Pros

Full time plus overtime availability

Cons

They do not pay you your full earnings No pay for PTO days Everything is 3rd party so HR cannot help you They randomly drop your insurance without warning, but you still have to pay for it. Ridiculous rules, like you cannot bring in a styrofoam drink cup BUT you can bring in plastic.. They constantly spill workers lunches during pat down and do not refund or replace them. You basically cannot defend yourself or the prisoners can file reports on you and you can get charges. No family time, they'll work you till you drop off you let them.

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.
