Pros

They pay well, but you will spend most of your career in the bottom of the pay scale as the raises are small and only yearly.

Cons

Terrible bureaucracy. Almost no advancement opportunities. Absolutely no training. Work life balance is dreadful in some departments.

Pros

Teamwork, the crew , good pay,

Cons

Long hours, forced 12hour shifts with no lunch break and over time, average week is 52 to 60 hours , short staffed regularly, management team not engaged on floor, managers with poor attitudes, no breaks. Promotions are based off of favoritism you will get the interview but they already know who they picked.
