Pros

The work atmosphere is laid-back and team oriented. Knowing that you are both directly and indirectly helping the community is a plus.

Cons

There is a high turn-over rate for both leadership positions and the lower positions. There is also a lack of adequate job training, the "team leaders" sometimes have little to no knowledge in their designated departments, I think the "laid-back atmosphere" relates to this.
