Pros

Gain some experience to move on to a better job. It can be a very laid back place to work at times. Some freedoms.

Cons

Poor upper management. They will promote purely based on how long you have been at the company and now we currently have quite a few people working in supervisory/management roles with no idea how to be a supervisor or manager. Unfortunately there is not a lot, or any, common sense within the company. LOW pay. 2% raise max but yet they spend money monthly on cheap "gifts" for employees like pens, notepads, and stressballs. Leadership just seems to be very confused on how to run things. CFO is completely lost and under qualified. Adolescent program is failing and managed terribly.
