Pros

free meals and snacks nothing more

Cons

1. No leadership. Leader wont be happy if u leave early, even if finishing all jobs 2. Long long long long working hours, 60+hours, too unhuman. 3. Arrogant young people everywhere, dont listen to your advice sometimes. 4. Dont care about worker's lives and health. Everything for free was just to make people for long hours. Dont really care about career development.
