Pros

Staff are very friendly but some might threaten you. Manager has a condition that causes her to throw up in the back office every so often and burps in your face.

Cons

Long working hours, pay is not what is advertised and fully depends on location business to be able to meet bonuses. Upline is non responsive and lies to be able to get people in the door.

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
