Pros

They have some really hard workers, which go unrecognised and under appreciated .

Cons

Management only cares about their bonuses. In order to get their bonuses, they must keep operating expenses down, which mean they reduce their workforce and labour and make all the people on the floor work twice as hard. Its a really horrible place to work. In fact, 1 in 3 people leave within the first 6 months, thats how bad it is. Out of all the large multinational corporations i have worked for, this would have to be the worst. No work life balance, bad rostering , expected to work 105 hrs+ per fortnight even though contract is only 75.
