Pros

I haven't seen so far.

Cons

Plenty so far. After 10 days I decided drive 14 miles just to check on my application and hopefully see if I could talk to the hiring manager or hr while I was already there. I was just turned away. I was dressed and ready for the interview. I showed initiative and professionalism just by showing up and was ready to work. I even waited in the parking lot an extra 5 mins just in case, but nothing. So, I'm already assuming that they weren't considering. I check back later on the site and it says position closed. Even for a military veteran who was willing to work hard for them they didn't interview before not considering.
