Cons

work work work, you WILL NOT have a life here, i work well over 100 hours a week and they treat you like crap if you cant handle the hours, you are not treated as a person but more as a robot or a working machine, they will run you into the ground working so much, might as well dig your own grave if you wanna work here, pay is only good becuase we get more overtime than regular pay 60 plus hours of overtime a week.. prepare to get no sleep lack of food bad treatment no family time, its depressing
