Pros

Good pay Good benefits Some teams have great leadership that can make you forget about the companies leadership as a whole.

Cons

The company has shifted over the past years and behaves like a publically traded company while touting it's family first mentality. They claim to invest in their people and do what's right, but will cut corners to save money. Simultaneously touting both your teams performance as all time highs and the company making record profits while also laying off entire support teams that are blowing away KPIs. It's very clear leadership from CCI has taken over CEI and is acting like a team of MBAs and laying people off to save money despite making record profits. There is no Job security anymore. You can be laid off, or have your division divested/sold off at any time for seemingly any reason despite your own, your teams, and the companies performance all being great. Theyve opted to take a form of support employees praise in Chat support and in office support to outsource them to an Indian firm so I expect that will make support worse than before as well. If you like quick money and not job security then it's fine, but do not buy into the "family owned" mentality leadership tried to pitch as that no longer exists for anyone other than leadership itself.

Pros

Benefits are good. PTO Day 1.

Cons

No advancement opportunity. They claim they hire internally, but they don't seem to adhere to that. Out of nowhere, hours were cut from 40 hours to 32 for our particular shift due to "business needs". However it seems like we are rarely caught up at the end of the night. The same position on another shift did not lose nearly as many hours. Then, there was a location wide meeting where they bragged about record sales and record profits. Seems pretty insensitive to do in front of employees who lost over 20% of their pay. The manager comes off as completely harsh and rude. When you fill out a survey stating facts, they are met with a dismissive tone followed by, "you know this is not true". Training is non existent. Other underpaid employees have to train you so it's like a game of telephone where the training contains just a little less information or a little more incorrect information each time. Pay for other positions in the organization is below average. When applying for those positions internally, they want to base pay on your current role instead of based on qualifications for the job being offered. There is a pay range listed for jobs, don't expect to get anywhere near the top and you are LUCKY to see the middle of that range. Pay raises are not anywhere near inflation rates, so if you stay more than a year you are losing money.
