It's horrible!

Pros

The work is pretty easy.

Cons

Management only cares about business. They won't care about personal needs and any emergencies. They will make you work long hours and treat you horribly. The owner is horrible too. Yells at employees and management in front of customers. Leaving was the best choice I've ever made.

Pros

Easy work and they give you good hours.

Cons

People talk to you in Spanish even if you speak none. Employees aren't treated with respect. I just started, and I have to ask for days off 2 weeks in advance minimum. They won't let you go home if it's an emergency. The lunch break is 1 hour, which you don't get paid for, and you have no say in when you want it. Might not have the ability to eat for hours.

Horrible

Pros

The only good thing about working here is that the quality of their food is great - only get 20% discount however.

Cons

Corporate environment and culture is terrible. The owners of the company are controlling and don’t let people do their jobs. The office space is old, cramped and dark with no windows. They blindside and fire their employees out of nowhere with no warning and then would not allow me to use my work I did for them in my portfolio. They had their lawyer threaten me.
