Pros

The people I work with are probably the only thing that has kept me going. Moving up is encouraged, but managers hold you back and some talk employees down.

Cons

Managers talk down about employees, hold them back from advancing, some don't deserve the position they are in. Seen and hear with my own eyes and ears every single day! Pay is horrible, don't expect a decent raise. "Budget" is always to blame, yet managers expensing thousands of dollars a month is ok! Turnover is ridiculous and managers and the higher upper management don't care to fix it and make the company more reputable with people and employees. They only care about the dollar and sales and not the help that make it possible to get there!

Pros

The employees are wonderful to work with. They create a super fun, casual atmosphere that still allows work to get get done professionally.

Cons

Long, off time hours. Upper management seems to only be out for themselves except for a select few. Disconnect between corporate and operations as well as between Portland and Kent.
