Pros

There are no pro's except it is a job that doesn't have your back and get blamed for everything.

Cons

1. NO employee loyalty 2. The blame always falls on you 3. No respect for staff 4. Are NOT able to talk to management 5. Anything you say is used against you, so that they can fire you or any other employee later 6. They wait for you to do your full day of work and then they fire you (no notice or warning) 7. Any little mistake is the END of the world and your job 8. Every day is a list of new procedures they expect you to learn and if not it's either a write up or termination 9. They don't pay anything for the amount of work you do, and the constant stress you're under 10. Even when you call out sick; they still expect you to work 11. Your boss doesn't stand up for you for anything and is the first to throw you under the boss so that he won't get the blame for it 12. Are at other people's beck and call whether you off the clock or at lunch 13. There is absolutely no COMMUNICATION...they expect you do complete a task that wasn't assigned to you and forgot to mention it to you 14. Annual raises are on average only $0.05 every year 15. Your pay gets max out at 9.50 (do the math on average 5 cents a year starting at $8.00 to be max out at $9.50) 16. It's really not a complete FULL TIME - full time is 40 hours a week; FULL time in IST is 37.5 so you on top of the very little pay for your hard work and effort they still take 2.5 hours away and consider it FULL TIME 17. Your Paid Time Off (PTO) is included with sick days, vacation days, holiday's - That means that if you use all your hours it's gone if your sick after not to mention THAT HOLIDAY'S GET TAKEN FROM YOUR PTO AS WELL. 18. Health Insurance is practically unaffordable since it's more than one whole pay check. 19. 401-k plan they offer does not price match a single penny 20. WORST JOB IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!

Pros

Check. Income. Work Life Balance.

Cons

Pay is horrible. Benefits are costly. No PTO. Crooked management and HR does nothing to back the employees. Their software MSPT is accent and they need to better their software. This is Hal Blackmans baby so getting him to change it won't happen.
