Pros

You make friends in a place with so many people which is nice.

Cons

management is very poor, they hire people and offer them no training which is a strain on the already understaffed and under pressure workers. Your hours change all the time and you cant have a day off without getting a phone call because someones called in sick. Very difficult.
