Pros

The income is nice and some of the customers can be very friendly. These are about the only two positive things that I caould think of.

Cons

There are to many to name them all here, but here are a couple. Rude customers, poor employee morale, poor employee training, unreal expectations from corporate, constantly being pushed to go faster and faster, high turnover, standing all day, no lunch break, etc....

Pros

Profit sharing is phenomenal. Compensation is adequate-fair(although it's being reduced).

Cons

Restructuring is a nightmare. Top dogs bagged multiple millions in bonuses for improvement last two years, while just about everyone else saw reductions in workforce; scores of layoffs and firings, thousands of full time employees cut in hours by 25%(more humane than firing every 4th one?), now upcoming wage freezes.
