Pros

Few hours home every night. Not much pros for the company. Work long hours everyday. Employees are tired and fatigued.

Cons

Promises are not kept. Wasn't followed though with. Was promised vacation. Have to fight for what days to take off. Stuck in the yard because they're short people. Paperwork on my taxes were screwed up from payroll so I wasn't given my refund I deserve.
