Pros

Entry level pay is okay and they love to feed you.

Cons

They tell you to prove yourself and you can possibly get a spot on day shift. However people who don't produce but who are "liked" seem to get those slots. While others who literally need day shift are told they can't change shifts due to the business need. They never give bonus checks on time. They fire most of the good quality people too. The turnover rate is crazy. Raises shouldn't be based on classes.

Pros

Company culture makes you really appreciate where you work. I definitely agree that is the "people" at AVB that make it great.

Cons

Nothing really... sometimes it is a bit of a struggle to wear so many hats.
