Pros

they provide you with free lunches, comes with access to a fully stocked soda machine, and full salad bar and 2 soups daily. The people you work with are great and job allows you to converse easily with all employees.

Cons

they work 10- 14 hour shifts a day monday - friday and then take away some of your weekends by making you come in of saturday. on a point systems for absences, if you show up 5 mins late they will point you, but they don't care to think of the 4 hours overtime you're putting in each day. to get hired on you have to pass a background check for credit history and pass a hair follicle drug test

Pros

Decent compensation and adequate facilities. They do not cheat or over charge their customers and offer an appealing array of products.

Cons

Little or no respect for anybody from the owner and CEO. Regularly berate and curseout workers and managers in front of their superiors, peers, and subordinates. No loyalty or common decency shown by top management to all but a few lower level workers.

Pros

Compensation was fair; benefits ok; occasional bonuses were common but typically in reaction to to employee unrest due to overworked hours and requests to do tasks that are outside of a job description

Cons

Owner/founder of the company is too involved in day to day operations and sets policies that can feel culty and misplaced; CEO at the time was mostly fine but for one policy that required “all” employees to login to a sales queue to manually take orders over the phone when volume surged, regardless of job title, description of status - or at least that was what was communicated. In reality, this became a tool for punishing and rewarding some employees, giving the appearance of special treatment or in some cases outright discrimination and those of us that did login would then have all the same work to do but less time to do it with less ability to do focused work on the tasks and projects we were actually hired to do.
