Pros

I don't have any pro's to provide.

Cons

RUN DO NOT WALK ... far away from seeking employment with this company!! ABORT THE MISSION EXPEDITIOUSLY!!! Hands down thee worst corporation I have EVER worked for! You can tell they are used to working with people in recovery and ex cons so if you are a regular person without a horrible background this job is not for you. Your hard work and dedication will never be acknowledged or appreciated. You will be under constant scrutiny for every single thing you do as well as micromanaged down to the smallest task. The lack of respect and common decency displayed by upper level management knows no bounds. The pay is super low. There is absolutely no overtime so if you clock out late you will be written up. You are required to work holidays and you will not get paid time and a half. They have a huge problem approving vacations and allowing you to utilize the PTO you work for. There is always someone looking for you to make a mistake so you can be written up. The atmosphere is extremely stressful and the people are VERY MESSY 💯 Not worth the $12ph. You're better off at McDonald's

Pros

Had so much fun at the internship and the supervisors were genuinely invested in us as college students that time, to grow and learn more under them. Also free lunch everyday and it was pretty good! Free parking too.

Cons

Only the commute as traffic is no joke in the DMV.
