Pros

Great benefits.

Cons

Management are lazy,incompetent,and liars. You will constantly be forced to work overtime and 7 days straight and if you can't for some reason they threaten to fire you. If you are not a lazy person and you show that you are then expected to pick up the slack for every other shift and constantly fix their mistake or be punished for it. They also have zero care or consideration for men and women that work for them.
