Pros

Good pay and medical benefits for family. Can lay off when I need to

Cons

Managers always testing and company always trying to take money out of your pocket. Will not pay valid claims because timekeeping was told to just "not pay" them

Pros

The pay is "high." That's about it. If you're a college graduate, avoid this place like the plague.

Cons

The company really doesn't care about it's employees. Take your money and run.
