Pros
  • Free drinks
  • Reasonably good benefits (though these are being eroded now)
  • Can attend training courses (if you ever find available time to do it)
Cons

This is a burn and churn environment. The culture is one in which they want to work you 24/7. They criticize or reprimand many on the tiniest things. The repressive culture will erase any professional confidence you have over time.

Advice to Management

Managers here are out for themselves and not their employees, so I have no advice.
