Pros
Team Environment: Everyone helps everyone else to accomplish goals and push for higher standards. I was invited to Team Night before I ever worked a single hour. Meaningful Experience: This was my first professional job. They gave me the experience all other companies require. I started in Entry Level and moved up to Assistant Management in 9.5 months. Although the long term was not for me, I was able to gain a management position elsewhere with my experiences there. Reliable Hours: Management is willing to accommodate employee scheduling needs. I typically worked 7.5 hours/day 5 days/week with an hour lunch break. When I had to drive to meet clients I was paid for the drive time and reimbursed for gas and use of my own vehicle.
Cons
This is still very clearly a start-up company, though that isn't necessarily a con. Everyone loves an Austin start up, especially one growing this quickly. That being said, the company is barely 2 years old so there are still some technical kinks to be ironed out. I definitely didn't make much money the first month. I was still learning and kind of felt like I was working that college customer service job again. But, if you follow the advice of your trainer, you can definitely start making as much as $25/hour before being promoted.
