Pros

It's not the hardest job in the world.

Cons

Company doesn't care about its employees, management across the board is awful, terrible hours, and don't expect your starting pay to go up very much. Expectations are unrealistic with the environment the company refuses to fix. Company expanded to run more machines despite the equipment already there being outdated and probably not capable of handling the jobs they try to run.
