We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review! It is great to hear that you are happy with your supervisor and the various work breaks throughout your time with BE thus far! We are disappointed you have found it difficult to take time off. We recommend meeting with your supervisor and Area Coordinator to discuss this concern and work together to find an appropriate time to take some much-needed time off. We greatly value work-life balance and encourage employees to take that time for themselves whenever needed.
