Pros

Fast hiring process if desperate to pay the light bill coming up

Cons

Treated unfairly was unknowingly terminated from here no one even called nor had the balls to inform me of my termination . Human resoues2 lady acted like a little girl and told me I was terminated for personal reasons I take it because of my proud sexuality. No common sense at all . They will also take advantage of you if your the nice type of person that doesn't mind working. Was threatened about jail time and fines if I didn't return uniforms upon termination eventhough they hadn't started paying me unemployment so I lost my car . Also very disrespectful management . Word from the wise my life started going downhill once I started working for this place and was warned in advanced by previous employees that were quitting bc of the same reasons. Save your life sanity and time , they aren't worth losing them.

Pros

Some of your coworkers will be decent. Pay is above the industry average.

Cons

The management at the regional office do not respect their employees. They will not value your time, are nigh unreachable should you attempt to call the office, and will tell you one thing and then do another. Overall I found management to be dishonest and incompetent. Supervisors are slow to address under performing or problematic coworkers. Expect to pull more than your own weight, without being compensated for the extra effort. Each assignment will have Post Orders that you are expected to abide by and enforce. Expect no support from higher when someone complains that you are actually enforcing those policies.
