Pros

Amazing discounts, interesting people, access to endless knowledge and entertainment. Moderate paid vacation accumulation.

Cons

Low salary. Employees lack motivation due to recent raise reductions and increase in expectations. Using paid sick time is a benefit you are punished for using. No cost of living pay increases for long-term employees.
