Pros

some time offers free lunch, most co-workers are very nice.

Cons

This is NOT good place.... 1. Managers micro-manage, threat and lie 2. Take advantage employees ... they don't pay enough to cover gas when you use your own vechile 3. Terrible travel policies -- they may rather you spend 4-5 more hours(that is your time) on the road to save $40-50. you are required to share a room with your co-worker when travel together. 4. NOT decent management -- When you give them leaving notice, they will get rid of you as soon as they can not wait until the end of 2 week period. NEVER give them notice

Pros

Great co-workers, good place to learn. There are opportunities for professional growth. The corporate office location is great. Work hours are fairly flexible.

Cons

Not a healthy environments. Management doesn't care about retaining their employees. Turn over rate is extremely high, people either get fired, laid off or just walk away from their jobs. Salaries are low and benefits are poor.

Pros

In this economy if you are in need of a paycheck and have some sales background....go for it. They are always hiring people there (red flag). It is not uncommon to see at least 20 people per month go through training. Sounds like a revolving door to me. The HR department is paid by the amount of warm bodies they bring through the door not by the quality of the staff.

Cons

Yikes, Yikes and double Yikes!!!! What was I thinking to say the least? First off, they take at least 4 months of training and cram it into 1 month. Next, they never emphasize that they expect you to maintain an average of 90% on tests during training or you will be terminated. If you fail a test they do not sit with you to review mistakes nor are you allowed to take your tests home to study...You are told that you must destroy all copies of your tests. Also, you would think in a corporate setting their would be an enforced dress code and I saw some women there dressed to the point of making a truck driver blush. There is a lot of favoritism there with some people I feel that would be better suited working at 7-11. Trainers and management pick and choose who they awant more, very poor management style.
