Pros

Don't know of any specific pro. Was told there would be opportunity for continued employment but no one rehired in Old only high mgt retained positions. Were not honest with us.

Cons

Limited room for advancement in Operations. Told one thing they did another. Allowed us to prepare to interview but had no intention to hire.
