Great until personal issues took over the company.

Business Outlook

Pros

Relatively easy work, close knit staff, pretty good pay, a great summer job for college students or people in between jobs.

Cons

Awful uniforms, customer relations can be hard because no one wants their photo taken, and the close knit staff has a tendency to cause drama and cattiness (at least in the location I worked).
