Cinemark reviews

Low pay grade. My theater in particular puts a $0.25 cap on raises per year. Employees are lucky if they receive more than $0.15 raises. Unprofessional management. Hypocritical attitudes from management toward employees. Don't yell at me for having my cell phone in my pocket and take yours out five minutes later. Favoritism. Certain employees are favored over others, and most of the time this favoritism is based on personal preference, not merit. Those who are favored get the best shifts while the rest of us work every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. They are also held to a lower standard, and don't have to work as hard. The degrading "Mr./Mrs." titles for management. It's a bit ridiculous that I should have to refer to someone my age or younger by "Mr. So-and-so."

-Incredibly rude customers on a daily basis -No recognition for a job well done -Forced to up sell and suggestive sell when it's obvious customers are getting annoyed, frustrated and don't want to hear it. - I'm only 18 and suffering from back problems from lifting the popcorn seed, oil, butter and soda syrups when restocking and from standing on my feet for up to 9-10 hours a day - Schedules are usually for 8 hour shifts but in the concession stand, you usually work 9 or 10. (Due to restocking and cleaning if you're a closing shift. Opening shifts are sometimes 9-5 which doesn't make any sense considering the closers don't come in until atleast 4 and you don't get off your register until 5 o'clock because it's always busy. Who seriously schedules movies during change-over?!?! Pisses me off.) - I've had to close the stand on a school night a few times. Was there until 1am with class at 7am. Movie's should be scheduled no later than 10pm especially during the week so the theater can close down and employees can get out of there before midnight. - Managers are always disappearing when you need them most! If you're out of ones in your register, have a customer complaint that needs to be addressed or even a refund, you have to track down your manager which can take awhile which slows down your line and ticks customers off (and they always decide to take it out on you, too) - It's mandatory for everyone to work holidays- Christmas, New Years, Thanksgiving, Easter, etc. etc. It's ridiculous! Worked 12 hours on Christmas Day when I was only scheduled for a 9am-5pm shift because it was so busy and they made me stay. - Open 365 which I personally think is awful. Give everyone a break for once! -Have worked at the same theater for almost 2 years now. Only recieved a single $.10 (Yes. TEN CENTS) raise before the minimum wage went up. Now I'm still making minimum wage.
