Pros

Haven't seen any pros to staying with the company. Very poor pay and drama filled work environment. Too many bosses to staff ratio

Cons

Extremely poor pay and management. You get a 30 min lunch and no other breaks even when you are working 91/2 + hours. They use a blanket term of food service to not pay people that cook a cooks wage.

Coworkers are your friends and enemies

Pros

Most of the coworkers are nie and friendly. Especially to new employees. Some even treat others as family which is a really nice feeling.

Cons

Other coworkers hate to see you succeed more than them. Seniority is a bis issue and some just can't seem to mind their own business. These people are more worried about how much time you're making instead of worrying about them selves.

Pros

Global company with lots of room for lateral as well as upward movement. Wonderful benefits. If you work at HQ or a regional office, it's a really nice work environment. Training is abundant and encouraged. Development plans and employee evaluations are taken very seriously.

Cons

While they are very generous with vacation/sick/personal paid time off, they are probably a little low on salary. Because of the size of the company, there are more levels of middle management than I've experienced elsewhere.
