Pros

The managers were super helpful, very social, and never intimidating. I'm still good friends with my old manager. You will be challenged, which is a good thing.

Cons

The Copy and Print department is beyond hectic, and we were frequently understaffed. No more than 2 people working at a time with print orders and jobs sitting on hold for sometimes days at a time. This is a customer facing role, so expect to get chewed out A LOT. People assume you're a printing wizard, and that you can do anything they want. Lots of unrealistic demands, and sometime managers will make promises you can't deliver, and you take the heat for it from customers. The training process took FOREVER.

Pros

Discount was pretty nice to have

Cons

Management was changed very frequently that right when one person would finally get their system in order, someone else would be hired to take their place. Also the pay was really bad, like it only became 15 right before I was leaving.
