      Pros

      better to work than fast food chain, even you don't have medical experience , you can still able to work there. good to have experience.

      Cons

      working with a lot of issues and dramas, supervisors are favoritism, if you apply for any position, you better have a supervisor to back you up!!!!

      Pros

      -People here including management is incredibly friendly and supportive. -Company perks such as medical benefits (vision,dental, medical), 401k, stocks -Pretty laid back atmosphere, not too stressful (quality > quantity) -OT is plentiful -ESL/aerobics/yoga classes available

      Cons

      -Difficult to be promoted and advance in the company without having connections. In some of the cases I noticed that people move up not because of merit and hard work, but from knowing someone higher up on the corporate ladder. -Favoritism (Certain management members already know in advance who will apply for a certain position opening and who's a shoe-in) -Difficult communicating with some fellow coworkers and leads since English isn't their first language. -Hiring standards are really subpar, churn rate is noticeable.

      Pros

      The company is doing well financially. There are some quirky pluses like food truck day and an onsite taqueria.

      Cons

      There is A LOT of nepotism and office politics. As other reviews mention, it's a great place if you're related to someone in management, friends with someone in management, a former coworker of someone in management, or even the son/daughter of a customer. Salaries could be more competitive and business techniques could use an overhaul.
