Pros

Never have to go to the gym and I can eat whatever I want. The chaos is addictive. Overtime always available if your body can handle it.

Cons

Awful management that will lie to you and manipulate you. Unsafe environment with empty first aid kits. No accountability for some people, and intense scrutiny for others. Standards only apply sometimes. For the midnight/sunrise shifts, you will not know when you're going home. Every single day you will stay there until the work is done, which can mean 10-15 hours of hard physical labor five days a week. Unspeakably high turnover rate. 10 minute break once per shift isn't enough to recover. Terrible, neglected equipment.

Pros

One of the benefits they list to get you in the door is TOP RATE pay*. The top rate is currently unknown but general consensus is 20 years to top rate pay. If you love standing around making up stories in your own head for two hours while spreading rumors amongst your unabashed co-workers about other co-workers you’ve interacted 2 minutes in the year you’ve worked together then this job is for you! Minimal logic involved.

Cons

Fellow employees will unionize to get you out of your route. Employees will make up stories to pit employees against one another. Fellow employees will threaten other employees for being friendly to one another. The management is willing bend over backwards to give you a bad review if leaving for another job. Co-workers are extremely bored and in most cases workload differs dramatically depending on where you are on the sort.
