Pros

Good benefits after a year...

Cons

The labor management is a joke, if you plan on working there be prepared to do the work of 5 people. Which should make you look good right? Wrong! You'll have managers make excuses why you can't move up or get a pay raise, let alone any respect or appreciation. Meanwhile management does the work of 0.5 workers and most of the time asked me how to do the things they are supposed to. It's a bad place to work unless you can convince yourself that 5 people's worth of work is worth doing for crap pay

Pros

Fantastic health and customer service standards If you have a good management team, everything goes smoothly and even when it doesn't they help you handle it If you negotiate pay before being officially hired, they are willing to negotiate Opportunity for growth Affordable benefits that are actually good

Cons

A LOT is expected from you, and if you don't negotiate for higher pay before being hired, or at the time of promotion, it can feel like you're being underpaid for sure. Just because you are on the same level as someone else, doesn't necessarily mean you will receive the same pay rate
