Pros

Lots of vacation and sick time

Cons

If you give your two weeks, they immediately cut off benefits/pay/etc and tell you to leave immediately or HR will escort you out. You will not get a reference if you are there less than 14 months.

Pros

no pros here at this place

Cons

if you work in some departments they will send you home early and you loose pay and its not a very fun place to work, the people are not very friendly . on fridays they close at 12 and some departments 1, so you have to leave at that time, and you never get a full 40 hr workweek, which affects your paycheck. alot of the customers are really rude. this was the worst job i ever had, they let me go because of lack of hours, not enough work for me to do. this is sad for a company with such a big name. i was just about to be hired on from an agency and after 5 months they let me go because of not enough work for me to do. what a shame. be aware if you work here you may be sent home early and loose money. on wedsedays though you have to be there an hour early and do alot of other peoples work be prepared for that. no water is provided for employees either, which alot of companies do provide that. NO GROWTH here. a girl i know worked here for 4 years and only got a 50 cent raise from $11 to $11.50. sad after 4 years.

Pros

Get to drive some newer model cars.

Cons

Work outside in heat and cold, "washing" 300 to 700 cars each week!! Never told anything about this "part" of the job during application or interview!! Don't care about employees, they make drivers wait outside in heat or cold for next assignment, sometimes for hours!!
