Pros

Guaranteed 40 hour weeks. Only a couple good people.

Cons

Terrified of my boss. Screamed at constantly, scared to call in sick without being yelled at and called a liar. I go home and just cry everyday. Work is way too much and seeing others get treated better because they hang out with the boss after work is depressing. Most people have been there a long time and are set in their ways. they'll throw you under the bus any chance they get. When you have a question, they can't answer it and turn it around to where you're the ignorant one for not understanding it yourself.
