Pros

$3 lunch at the cafeteria, Starbucks present at the HQ (although not free), fun coworkers

Cons

Terrible culture, unqualified cocky executives with no business ethics or strategic plan, lack of transparency of the business so you don't know if you're going to get your bonus or not, no one is held accountable for decisions they make and the business practices are very questionable/do not follow industry standards at all.

Pros

Pay was decent, managers were nice, & was scheduled to work every day

Cons

One of the cons was that if you had closing shift during peak season, you weren't allowed to go home until everything was organized (around 1 am)
