Pros

I started dealing with Penske a few weeks ago and they are a wonderful bunch of people! They are very honest and have helped me every step of the way.

Cons

The con is that I can't go day shift for ATLEAST a year. Also, vacation days do not come into effect until after the first year and I already have a vacation payed for and booked.
