Good pay and flexible schedule

Cons

Little to no time to train new hires, ridiculous work expectations (usually understaffed and overworked), no accountability, arrogant leadership that doesn't listen, metrics based management where hours are cut rampantly without notice to save a few dollars often times forcing employees to bear the burden of short downtimes to save the company
