Pros

They will hire anyone even the neighborhood drug dealer because they don't drug test.

Cons

The downsides are: There is basically no training in the entire organization. You are thrown to the floor with no formal training or procedures and expected to perform. The managers are very young people with no formal manager training or education. Although they promote from within, they don't follow professional guidelines on interviewing and they select not the candidate with the most experience, but the candidate that has ties to the company.
