Pros

Managment is down to earth and understanding. Really knows how to support their team through work related and personal highs and lows. Friendly enough enviroment to work in. Always something to laugh about.

Cons

Certain team members behave quite childish at times which can make for some tense moments. Threader has gotten too big for her boots. The pay could be better and unreasonable lateness and absences need to be clamped down on - it makes everyone else's shifts harder.

Pros

The only thing I can think of is that you smell nice most of the time because of the perfume.

Cons

They make everyone feel bad for anything they do. They don't praise the good things and focus only on the bad, half the time you don't know what exactly you're doing wrong. They make their employees upset on numerous occasions. I'm always terrified to come into work because they'll just give you a hard time and a lot of people who I work with there feel that way.
