Pros

The people that worked for the other company in our trailer were super friendly

Cons

The Upper management could really use a turnover. They seemed to constantly talk down to you, even though you get little to no training on your job. There is never any chance for actual work, kept me updating spreadsheets and photocopying papers even though I am highly educated and was hired for a different position. I believe I was the 5th person for that job in about a 4 months span. I was not told of the high turnover rate for the job until AFTER I started. The HR did not seem to care about my complaints either.

Pros

Nothing at all. It's all listed in the cons.

Cons

We were sold off to them from Optimum. Quickly trying to become the worst company in America to work for. They took away our vacation. Our sick time. Our personal time. They took away holidays. Now they are saying that working a holiday is mandatory unless you asked it off 2 weeks before it (they gave notice of that less than a week before it). They monitor wherever you are, doing whatever, soon as that truck moves. You aren't allowed to backup. If you call in two times in a 90 day period, you're in trouble. If it gets to 8 times (the last call in continues it on) you're fired. They overwork you because they are "behind" and you're just expected to work later. We're expected to do more and for less. They even denied our merit raises saying they didn't believe in them. They don't care about your family and wanting to see them. To be able to spend time outside of work. DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY IF YOU CAN HELP IT!
