Pros

They pay you and let you go home at the end of the day.

Cons

Where to start.... Unprofessional behavior by managers. Power plays. Job responsibilities are stripped after they are earned to get out of increasing your pay Unnecessary processes are changed on a weekly basis, delaying progress and you are at fault for not keeping up. Managers can be vindictive and berating to employees. You will be afraid to ask managers about what is going on in the company out of fear of losing your job. You will be hired on as seasonal and kept that way for at least a year so they can get out of paying you for benefits and Paid time off. Oh, and then you may get let go and called back months later to return to a fresh new hell. Favoritism is rampant. You are policed even on your breaks by circling managers. Micromanaged and knit picked to no end. Yearly and Quarterly evaluations are a farce if and when they do happen. You will in no way be properly compensated compared to others in the rest of the work force. There is vague and limited communication from upper management, asking too many questions can lead to negative feed back and possibly loss of employment.

Pros

No pressure. Pretty much can come and go as you please. Nice office, free coffee. Co-workers are OK. Most keep to themselves.

Cons

Management not in the office most of the time so good luck getting questions answered, but the minute you try to sneak out they are all over your case. No business processes are followed here. If you like a free for all environment where you can do whatever you want, this is the place. No accountability either, so if you screw up, it doesn't matter. Some people like to throw others under the bus all day long. Gets old. Very immature leadership. Right hand doesn't know what left hand is doing. Everyone is so confused on their roles and responsibilities which are never clearly defined for you.

Pros

Great schedule and pay is ok. Most of the employees are amazing and can be like family.

Cons

HR can be a joke. Once upon a time unbiasedly they had an amazing crew. Changed hands into another amazing crew. Then had folks come from another site overstepping company guidelines as well as “culture”. If you need FMLA they more or less look to get you out the door versus provide you with the support they should.
