Pros

The associates really care . They need help from the upper management as well. Some managers are mistreating their associates and getting away with it. HR is not doing exit interviews so no one knows why people are leaving. Some management are treated better than others. Favoritism is big at NEX.

Cons

The upper management. NF4 think they own the world. Feel they are entitled. They cause most of the trouble. Gossip, spread rumors about each other. Break their own rules. Destroy moral. Human Resources is terriable. They are corrupt. No place to go for support

Pros

Easy to keep your job if you transfer from State to other States or overseas, so good for military spouses.

Cons

Working hours are too long. Pay is too little and rarely gives whole weekend off. Not very good at dividing shifts. If work there for more years you get all the good shifts. If you are new, they overwork you without praise. Also if you have worked for one year and got a transfer to another location, they will pay you as if you are just beginning all over again. No raise.
