Better than a real job

Pros

Fun people to work with, for the most part. The company tries to extend the best benefits it can, although they are getting less and less.

Cons

See above. Trader Joe's gets sued a lot -- because they always settle and don't ever fight back. It's a PR thing. The $$ comes out of their employees' pockets, for te most part.

Great Part time company

Pros

Good pay, workers, flexible with scheduling as long as you planned in advance. Good nurturing environment and growth potential. Co workers were pretty positive and hard working for the most part.

Cons

sometimes people would not pull their weight or get specialized treatment from upper management. Others would work hard and not get recognized. Hard to get promoted and sometimes the work can get strenuous.
