Pros

This was by far one of the worst places I ever worked. My pay was 14.00 an hour, NOT 50k a year!!! 5 interviews, they begged me to take a full time position, which i could not. I started and was micro managed constantly. Work was cult-like. Smile or be written up.

Cons

Bad hours, veteran employees who hate newcomers and will do anything to badmouth them. Vets afraid of losing hours, so everybody is a threat. Time off policies ridiculous, no perks with horrific health insurance, company values definetly very cultish. When did I EVER make 50k a year as a FT? I'd love to know?

Pros

Decent pay for the most part

Cons

No raises, no bonuses, as an IC doing every other department is more important. Lots of forced overtime at the last minute.
