Pros

You’ll be thrown in the deep end, if you can swim in deep water a great place to get experience, but not a place for a lifelong career. Turn over is so high you’ll be able to choose any role you want (just don’t expect the subsequent title or pay)

Cons

Will literally work you to death and laugh at your funeral. The idiots will be promoted ahead of you and then make your life a living nightmare. Was exposed to COVID in the workplace and they made us come back 5 days later. Don’t expect praise or reward. Just bend over and play dumb if you want to succeed here.

Very stable. Really nice people. Management is super nice. I recommend as a place you can build a career. Work / life balance is good too.

Cons

I would say the lower salary but benefits are great.
