Pros

Great work environment and coworkers, most of management was great as well. Can be fun with the right work family, pretty chill. Not too stressful. It was my first job and I’ve enjoyed my experience 95% of the time being here a little over a year. I’ve learned a lot as well. Ofc there will be some off days and moments.

Cons

Attendance policy can be a bit of a pain with getting written up easily if you live at a distance especially with train systems acting up. Even if you’re 3 mins after grace period (as far as personal experience).
