Pros

Can bring pets to work Same level co-workers sympathize with each other Opportunity to learn because they company stays short staffed

Cons

Not flexible with schedules Buildings not cleaned often Bad communication from management No recognition for performance Management doesn't care about retaining good employees Promotions for employees who are lazy and unknowledgable, but none for deserving employees Must "kiss-ass" to get advancement When employees leave, work gets passed on to those who are left, instead of re-hiring
