Pros

Hour lunch, some friendly co-workers, some benefits. But other than that, this job was more of a pain than a delight.

Cons

Alot of drama, too many managers/assistant managers make communication obsolete when one tells you something completely different than the other. Terrible long hours with little pay. Bi-weekly pay. Alot of snitching and miscommunication. Can get fired for just about anything.

Pros

Work fulfilling both physically and socially, dealing with donors and fellow employees for this retiree and former legal and business professional.

Cons

Creepy, clannish, petty, and cultish management is more interested in humiliating others under the guise of "following rules" many of their own making than in ensuring that the work facility is properly equipped to handle daily workflow. Communication nonexistent. Managers pop in and out, apparently stationed at some secret location.  Robotic replies to legitimate work questions when they weren't out-and-out nasty.  I've occasionally dealt with this sort of folks, but never an entire collection of them cheering each other on as might appear in some deleted scene from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." Poisonous and bizarre. Recommended only for the Abnormal Psychology student.
