Worst thing possible.

Pros

Maybe the food for breakfast.

Cons

The management like Tadas don't know what the hell are they doing. Everyone is either an older fellow or a kid. So grumpiness all around. The work tasks are illegal because of copyright issues and they don't care. HR doesn't care if someone is literally talking lies about you or that you got injured on the job.
