Pros

None what so ever, it’s a lose lose.

Cons

No A/C in TEXAS, only fans that they hesitate to turn on resulting in extreme discomfort. Low pay. Management is awful and genuinely doesn’t care about you. Anti-union baked into orientation because of course. 1 = 3 = 1 doing the work of 3 people. CONSTANT System issues that they “can’t control” resulting in everyone playing catch up via mandatory 10 days for a week & threats of it bleeding into the weekend too. Management has no problem gaslighting you or making you feel bad for wanting to go home or downplaying any frustration you have. Training is done entirely at random and there is no choice to opt out of anything. Seems very much a dead end job to me.
