Pros
Management is willing to work with RTO pretty easily. GE machines are easy to use and proximity of ER with CT is set up nicely.
Cons
Communication with management is sometimes awful. Especially with contract extensions. HR also did not pay me for a day due to a missed punch. Instead of contacting me about issues, they just didnt pay me and it took two months to resolve that missing pay.
