        Pros

        Some of the people are nice, most are there due to career fatigue, and are unable to leave due to having kids at home.

        Cons

        Most people are toxic, the culture is toxic, and once you're out of management's' good graces you'll be gone one way or another.

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
