Pros

The coworkers and team dynamic in my department of 4.

Cons

Lack of help from the rest of Air Export Department. Not much a “team player” vibe amongst the rest of the team. Tend to look the other way while we were gasping to catch our breath. Felt almost exploited for being efficient, capabilities and willingness without compensation in the time working there.
