Pros

-Met great people -High standards -Great product -Thank you cards were exchanged frequently

Cons

-Poor work life balance -Scheduling & availability were a HUGE issue. For example, it would change without notice & without regard to personal matters, preferences & specified availability -Sometimes dangerous & hazardous work environment. For example, climbing unstable fixtures, poor ventilation & AC, falling boxes, climbing ladders in unsafe areas -Encouraged to overwork -Promises of promotions given by recruitment staff were unfounded -Questions about benefits given to full time employees were not answered or heavily delayed by HR -Internal HR unresponsive to complaints & comments -Hours & paychecks were often wrong & would sometimes take weeks to be corrected -Several employees were hospitalized due to work place injuries

Pros

Opportunity for advancement every 3 months, if evaluated. Competitive wages. Fun environment if you can get over the negatives and the overbearing Japanese ex-pat managers.

Cons

No communication between managers and associates, no respect for home/work balance, lots of favoritism, does not EVER want to pay overtime

Pros

none, really. nothing's really worth staying at this job.

Cons

management will schedule you when you're unavailable, management is really strict and awful. employed as part-time but forced to work 40+ hours, therefore, they get away with not paying me benefits.
