Pros

I like the people I work with, and there are alright benefits.

Cons

The company policy that makes you find your own replacement when you are sick makes it very difficult to actually get time off when you are ill. You end up working while sick, and often I see people getting yelled at for being sick and unable to find a replacement. Also, minimum wage sucks.

Pros

The customers are amazing and the job itself is very easy and doesn’t demand much work.

Cons

I was terminated after “complaining” about management and was treated unfairly until I had to leave. They were not trying to keep me in the company after I started complaining that I haven’t gotten raise in 2 years.
