Pros

Monday through Friday schedule. OK pay.

Cons

Job promotions are not based on merit; purely based on who you know, or who likes you. Many staff members were grandfathered in from previous companies that consolidated with TGC, and they are useless. Around 80% of the staff have no clue what they're doing.
