Pros

My co-workers were great. I enjoyed the work I did.

Cons

Managers are on a power trip. If you step out of line in any way, violent threats are thrown at you. Frequently heard a manager tell co-workers "don't make me punch you." "I swear to God, I will shoot you." Management brags about having multiple HR complaints towards them and they are still there. I have heard a manager say that an hourly employee doesn't deserve the same level of respect as a manager. Managers will gossip about other employees in front of employees but if you dislike anyone, they will treat you like garbage. Very toxic and abusive work environment.
