Pros

Good discount, nice and helpful coworkers, decent starting pay, for the most part flexible schedules.

Cons

I was hardly trained and expected to catch onto everything instantly. There is a lack of consistency between what each manager expects, so there is a a lot of miscommunication. I often implement something that I was told by one manager only to be scolded by another for doing the wrong thing. I often leave work feeling dumb and like I am not valued as an employee. Sometimes the schedule changes with no notice and you are not notified of the changes- it is up to you to check Dayforce every day and make sure nothing has changed.

Pros

There are a lot of talented, hardworking people at this company, which makes recent leadership decisions even more frustrating.

Cons

Communication around major organizational changes has been vague and inconsistent, leaving employees with significant uncertainty and little confidence in the direction of the business. Morale has declined considerably. Many employees feel that years of experience, performance, and institutional knowledge are being undervalued in favor of rigid policies and top-down decision making.
