Cons

They don’t care about you. Managers and team leaders talk bad about their game guides in meetings and call it opportunity. They have favorites who can get away with anything and don’t get written up. Pay is super low starting at 13, and 50 cent raise for moving up. Hours are either too much or not enough. There’s too much drama and everyone loves to gossip/ make rumors. Managers don’t care and say how easily replaceable you are. NOT WORTH IT
