Pros

The job was ok but the people with drama and gossiping pushed me away. I like being able to come in for work and do just that. All my years of working I've never had a job I HATED coming to.

Cons

Productivity is everyone main priority! Sweat shop, manager bullying and harassment. Write ups are frequently to keep you from being able to transfer or get bonuses. I should have stuck with the con reviews I had read on here before applying. Some people are hired thinking they will get 40 hrs a week but was lied to because once they pushed to finish their job in 5 hrs off the clock they go. I can go on and on..... DON'T WAIST YOUR TIME!!
