Pros

A great second job. Willing to schedule around full time job elsewhere.

Cons

Management is poor. No advancements for seniority. Poor pay rates for a million dollar company.

Pros

Good discount, decent work environment, coworkers were great. Fairly casual environment. I worked in operations support so I had minimal contact with customers.

Cons

The pay was about average for a part-time job at that level. They were flexible with hours when I worked there but I have since been told they have moved to a "Wal-Mart" style of scheduling. You must be available for shifts within their template. Managers seemed to be pushed hard and the result was often stressed interactions.

Pros

If young and just starting a career you will learn a lot. But only stay a couple years and then get out while you can.

Cons

Pay is very low across the board. Benefits are nothing special and raises are a joke at less than the CPI. Very antiquated in attitude as well as technology. Very little regard for the wellbeing of their employees. They "sell" you on how family oriented they are, how employees are important, but it's all smoke a mirrors. The longer you stay the more you see the truth. Expect large rounds of layoffs for higher paid employees ever few years followed by a career fair to bring in younger staff they can pay less.
