Pros

One promo after 1 year but only if you show up exactly as they want you to (extremely biased and political promotion process from inside HR rep)

Cons

Company denied mental health accommodations during mental health awareness month and refused to work with me on any type of accommodation, forcing me to quit due to a disability that was exacerbated by the stress and environment of working with the union.
