Pros

There are non don’t be fooled by what they advertise, or ask anyone who actually works there the place is a mess.

Cons

Treatment of employees is terrible, management think they can slave everyone else while they staying on their phones killing time gossiping about employees private lives and throwing in racism comments while they’re at it with no repercussions whatsoever.
