Pros

- Weekly pay every Friday - Consistent Work; always busy. - willingness to teach younger employees

Cons

- Rarely get promoted - Salary is average compared to industry peers... Room for improvement. - I feel like upper management (VP and up level) do not care how overworked employees are. Rather you put your head down and get the work done versus voicing your opinion.
