Pros

When I was first hired, the management was great and knew how to relate to staff and made the environment pleasant to work.

Cons

New management came in and thought they were still in the military. The environment change to one that was unbearable, forcing staff to leave and bringing in new workers that wouldn't complain about the work conditions.
