Pros
If you’re looking for a job where having low expectations of yourself and others is not only encouraged, but rewarded, then this place is for you! The self-appointed supervisor is skilled at teaching you to optimize the time you need to consult with them by keeping the variety and frequency of long lunches and personal phone calls at a maximum. The work is easy peasy and management is so cool it doesn't discourage Netflix binging. Another lead employee in the department shows that if you put in enough time on the job, you too can take daily leisurely walks 2-4 times daily - not too shabby for an hourly employee. Sex talk? This is a haven for those who enjoy sharing and spilling all the sordid, down and dirty deets. The aforementioned self-appointed supervisor will prod you for details, all the way from when you lost your virginity to the last time and/or frequency of your nocturnal escapades, so it would serve you well to be ready to provide those details. As this person and others demonstrate, no need to worry about those pesky sexual harassment laws...you can make your sex life an open book. The actual department supervisor is away from the work area a lot, so there’s plenty of opportunities to earn your hourly pay doing the least amount of work possible. If you start having trouble adjusting to the workplace, feel uneasy because you don’t get trained or lack access to systems even after 2 months, then the supervisor can show you how your delusions can become your reality if you just convince yourself that the issues aren’t really there. If you’re the type who follows rules and exercises personal excellence to maintain effectiveness, then, as the supervisor likes to point out, this may not be the place for you. The supervisor is adept with a unique approach at keeping training materials and systems access hidden from those who need them, and demonstrates how being resourceful, inquisitive, and accountable for your own development can be divisive because none of the other employees behave that way. Just stay calm, sit and wait for enlightenment, even if it never comes. To sum it up, this workplace is a slacker's paradise! It's a good way to earn above-minimum wage with all the other benefits mentioned above!
Cons
Too bad the tale of the hard workers are eclipsed by the reputation and the lasting impression of the ruling class of slackers. Many of the good ones leave because they would rather pick their battles than wade through the culture of callous leadership and bad management. Critical and Analytical thinkers, beware!
