Pros

none worst experience of my life

Cons

evil company BEWARE I worked for 3 years in 1999 - 2003 and all I can say it was my worst working experience in my 20+ years of working as an adult. Disgusting management that spies on you at all times and creates a work environment like your working with secret service watching you ....BEWARE
