They took all the benefits away

Pros

Great people, many people have been there for long periods of time. Now that the company sold off the other banners, there seems to be a renewed vision. Sam Duncan seems to be running a tight ship and doing a good job.

Cons

They took away the 401k match, salary increases, bonuses, etc. They won't even provide dish soap in the kitchen anymore. I can't imagine how they plan to attract new talent.

Pros

Clean, efficient, and organized. Decent Pay. You get paid through your lunchbreak. Theres room for advancement if you work hard enough and can put up with weird hours.

Cons

Not an especially friendly workplace. Near the end of your shift you can be required to work an extra 2 or sometimes even 4 hours if they're busy. This is sprung up on you with little notice so you better be flexible.
