Pros

Good pay. Loved the people I met. In a good location. I feel Ken Chenault is a good CEO for the company.

Cons

It was misleading to not be told during the interviewing process that being hired was upon contingnecy during training. You aren't really hired. That information could have helped me make a better decision beteween the 3 jobs that were offered to me to provide for my family of 6. My class didn't find out until we started signing paperwork to actually go on the training floor. A very stressful environment to be in for 2 months. No longer there after training.
