Pros

Training and organization is good. Company benefits are okay. There are a few companies that offer discounts for working threr

Cons

Managers are all over the place. Working in the Copy and Print Centre you deal with enormous amounts of stress, fast paced, learning new things everyday, and staying on top of everything as it is high cost for screw ups and is based heavily on time management. Copy associates make the same as cashiers. What. Yeah. After working for 3 years and getting a raise every 6 months, I only am making a dollar more than minimum wage and new hires.
