The Worst Job I've Ever Had!

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Guaranteed 40 hours per week. Free Lunch That's all the pros I can think of for this job. I truly hated this job. I wouldn't recommend anyone work heere unless they were on the verge of being homeless or starving.

Cons

Bad Work Hours Location too far Racist coworkers Coworkers who don't speak English at all. Minimum wage to start and with a .05(yes that's a nickel) raise after 3 months. I really could go on and on about the cons. But seriiusly don't work here. They will truly hire anyone. Even people who don't speak English. How in the world am I supposed to communicate with someone who doesn't speak ANY English? Then when you go to management about it they don't care. And the amount of subliminal racism I experienced here was ridiculous. I lasted three months in this job. You don't get paid enough for the work you do and then they constantly change the work hours. And then ever so often there is something called a bid. Where you can bid to get a better schedule but that rarely happens if you don't have any seniority and if a person who has been at the job longer than you decides they want your job guess what? They can bid for it and your days off change and your hours could change too.

Pros

A paycheck and thats it!

Cons

There is no interest in attracting, developing, or retaining talent. Communication is terrible if not non-existing. Loads of people in highly paid positions creating uncertainty and obscuring information. Gloomy working environment; inflated egos. Organizational disaster: No proper salary/organizational scale in accordance to education and experience. Bigotry and inappropriate comments are tolerated. No support from HR.
