Pros

The other employees are great people to work with, and the pay is actually really good for the work and for this area.

Cons

The work is very demeaning and most of the time thankless. There is 0 opportunity for advancement and little in the way of earning extra besides occasional bonuses from the obligatory morale improvement efforts.
