Cinemark reviews

Few Upward Mobility Opportunities (See previous reviews) Hourly Wage (I won't lie; I started at a decent wage about 2 bucks above the federal minimum, which is to say 2 bucks above the standard wage at all the local mall retailers. However, raises are infrequent and often delayed.) Company Philosophy = Customer is Always Right (Actually, the customer is almost always wrong. Who knows the theatre better? Customer or employee? Many moviegoers complain about pricing and act shocked at the "unexpected" price gouging, knowing full well that concessions are ridiculously marked up. Tellingly, almost all customers voice their disapproval while in the act of purchasing said overpriced food items. If you're smart enough to realize you're getting ripped off, then why are you dumb enough to buy it? Personally, management has always backed me up in customer disputes, but a few complaint-resolution situations have gotten downright nasty, especially when cranky, antisocial misers--almost always elderly males--decided to take out their life's frustrations on the pale-faced teenager scooping popcorn into a cardboard tub for the nth time that evening.

You may be required to work holidays (only the first few that request get holidays off), managers treat you like little snot-nosed kids, customers are a pain (my guess is expensive movie tickets and concessions make them really grouchy for the remainder of their visit to Cinemark and show)
