Pros

Working? There are no pros to this job. Dirty items to display, nothing provided by company for standing in one place on feet for eight hours. Not even mats. Really?

Cons

Working, but hungry. Not able to go to doctor due to pay but point system used against you, Managers too young and inexperienced to deal with real life. sweat job. Taking advantage of the people who need them the most.

Pros

Work fulfilling both physically and socially, dealing with donors and fellow employees for this retiree and former legal and business professional.

Cons

Creepy, clannish, petty, and cultish management is more interested in humiliating others under the guise of "following rules" many of their own making than in ensuring that the work facility is properly equipped to handle daily workflow. Communication nonexistent. Managers pop in and out, apparently stationed at some secret location.  Robotic replies to legitimate work questions when they weren't out-and-out nasty.  I've occasionally dealt with this sort of folks, but never an entire collection of them cheering each other on as might appear in some deleted scene from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." Poisonous and bizarre. Recommended only for the Abnormal Psychology student.
