      Pros

      There are none. Every once in a while you may get a chicken sandwich with a bag of chips.

      Cons

      Miserable place to work, the only people that move up are family and friends, or if a supervisor has a crush on you. They work horrible hours 50 plus a week and you are to be there by 4:30 am. Its a big joke there, hr is off site so they dont have a clue whats going on. Management does nothing all day and they ride their success off of the workers.

      Pros

      Solid pay, and all the managers I've had did not expect OT unless it was necessary.

      Cons

      Constant org changes make it difficult to grow or rise in the company. Almost everyone I know has lost a manager at some point due to an org change outside of their control. Due to funding issues it's a constant rat race for middle management.
