Pros

nice colleagues, good snack - bar, not heavy job

Cons

They don't ensure full time hours (Manpower) even they ensure you on job-interview it is permanent and stable job don't believe them. They will fire you whenever they want or when phase A is finishing ... Working there is waste of time because there is no future in this job ...
