      Pros

      If $16.00 an hour is good pay to you, and 12 hours on your feet all day or night is good to you, this is your job.

      Cons

      They will work you into the ground. HR does not care about employees, they only look out for the best interest of the company. The flow of work is all over the place. They say they have your back, but in reality what they will put the inmates wants and needs before yours. It’s not bad dealing with the inmates, it’s is really the people that you work with that are the biggest problem. If you enjoy broken structure, low pay, and a hostile work environment, this is your job.

      Pros

      CC Uses cutting-edge Technologies, which is good experience for resume building; many of the Teams are collaborative; interesting work and you can believe in company goals.

      Cons

      Director and Manager level mgmt at corporate here do not provide guidance on projects. There is a lot of turnover on data projects because new employees are thrown into the deep end and then just blamed if results are not as expected. CC really needs more hands-on project oversight. There are also behavioral and anger issues with a couple long-time ppl as well, and this is both exhausting and (sometimes) outright humiliating. They need to treat new people better.
