Pros

They will hire any one who can pass a drug test. That's it. So if you really, really need a job, apply here.

Cons

Filthy, hazardous working conditions. D-list upper management so out-of-touch it's a wonder anything is accomplished at all. Workers stretched to the breaking point while others slack goes unnoticed. How much payroll is provided is based on how closely sales match the prior year regardless of very heavy foot traffic and post-production output. If you as an individual score high in their quarterly secret shop you are offered a 'candy bar of your choice' from the vending machine. So cheap they squeak. Truly an employer of last resort.

Pros

I get paid consistently. I don't have to stress about restraining people or raising my voice. My clients are friendly.

Cons

The pay is that good. I have to travel to NYC every day.

Pros

Great impact on the community

Cons

Terrible salary and hourly pay rates. They claim they care about the community, but don't do anything for their own people to make sure they're taken care of and paid fairly.
