Thank you for taking the time to submit this review. It’s a bit upsetting to read your feedback on the management and how they treat employees. Would you mind reaching out to us by calling our anonymous employee hotline at 844-484-8963 or email ccooper@Firstwatach.com with more information? Thanks again, and we hope to hear from you soon.

Pros

Fast Growing Company with opportunities to advance. Positive attitude from the management with no hostility. The managers create a teaching environment. No hostility amd the three managers are positive and helpful. Off by 330 every day so you have nights free. Pay increases as you learn more stations and responsibilities.

Cons

Pay is very low starting out. Unfortunately this is very common in the industry. Schedule posted on Sunday and changes every week making it hard to make any solid plans if you do t request off.
