Pros

Starting pay is pretty good.

Cons

management would constantly remind everyone that they can fire them at any minute. One day we had a meeting and our team lead told us at the meeting the job is more important than our family. We would be required to work a lot of mandatory overtime and they would let you know at the end of your shift as it was time to go home if you had to stay an extra 4 hours.

Pros

Bonus structure is awesome for management, vacation time adds up quickly, and incredible benefits for full time employees. 401k is also great.

Cons

No support from upper management. HR is a joke. Can’t speak your mind without it being used against you. Beat down of a job. Expect management to take up all the slack with extra hours but don’t get paid for it. Easy to get burnt out.

Pros

Great training and advancement opportunities. Good working environment. Fair compensation and benefits. Each day can have new and exciting opportunities. Most systems in place are efficient. 99

Cons

Too much micro managing. Not enough control because of the corporate environment. Years ago, each manager could make decisions that made more sense for their own market, but not so much now.
