    Couldn't wait for my contract to finish.
    The good thingsClose to home and staff were friendly.
    The challengesUpper management were aloof and lived in the ivory tower and showed no compassion towards their staff. They screwed the workers down on any pay negotiations and paid peanuts and they wonder why they only got monkeys to work there.
