Pros

Nice People Overall, very genuine

Cons

The HR department fired me within three weeks when they found out I was pregnant, and because I couldn't lift heavy boxes. (I have a back injury). Unclear hours, (one hour unpaid lunch break ). Human Resources actually terminated me without reasonable cause, and in some cases, lied about things I did which weren't true. I spoke to an employment lawyer about it, and we're filing a claim NYC Commission on Human Rights, and pursuing a lawsuit. Good company vision, but horrible Human Resources and general management.
