Used to be a great part time job, but that has changed over the years.
Pros
Only pro is flexible hours, but even this has it's limits.
Cons
Company has cut our pay rate twice over last 6 years. Never once have they offered any type of incentive, like pay raises! If you are really fast and accurate, you can earn bonuses every quarter....$50, $150 and $500 (only given to top 10 people). And when the new pay CUT goes into effect, they are even eliminating the $50 bonuses! Big deal, they weren't much anyway. Management is not supportive of our needs. They only care about getting the jobs done as quickly as possible, and as cheaply as possible. They provide us occasionally with new updated equipment, saying these items will make us much faster, then cut out pay.....probably to help pay for the equipment! Some jobs are so much harder (lapel work especially), and they don't compensate fairly for this, in fact, this is the area that keeps getting the worse cuts. Tools provided are poorly organized which makes our job much harder to do. There is so much more, but I would be writing a book! I would like to say one more thing. I was shocked to find out that new hires in Canada start at $15/hr......here in the US we were only paid $8/hr training rate!! (comment in a previous review I read) Is that fair business practice?
