Pros

Nothing, nothing. Run away from here. You are just a number company

Cons

Everything. Positive reviews don’t guarantee job security — you received strong feedback but were still let go. • Lack of documented performance concerns — no warnings before termination. • Unclear expectations — guidance during hiring (van movement not monitored) didn’t match later enforcement. • Limited transparency in decision-making — reasons for termination weren’t clearly tied to measurable issues. • Communication gaps between leadership levels — direct managers praised performance, yet outcome differed. • Effort not always formally recognized — early arrivals, skipped lunches, and cost-saving work not reflected. • Inconsistent policy application — flexibility allowed initially but later possibly used against you. • Rumor-based concerns — issues like tool suspicion not formally addressed or resolved. • Extra initiative not necessarily valued — using personal vehicle, travel offers, and vendor cost savings didn’t protect role.

Pros

They provide a wealth of learning materials to further your career.

Cons

My experience was that upper management does not understand what those in lower level positions do, and they don't take advantage of experience and knowledge of those below them to make strategic decisions.
