Pros

Lots of hours and shifts, good pay

Cons

They make you work lots of hours. You have no choice or life. They can't keep employees because they treat them like they are pieces of furniture. Management only cares about themselves. Their core values spiel is all BS and lies. Corporate only cares about making money. Inmates have the most power. Staff is last on the totem poll. Management is #1. They are backstabbers.

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.
