Pros

The facility is clean, the concept of the job is great, and the buildings you work in are very nice. When you’re brought on they’ll give you a pretty sweet gift bag.

Cons

Firstly when you’re hired they want you to write good reviews on google and trip advisor for them so I wouldn’t be surprised if they did the same on Indeed and Glassdoor.There is A LOT of favoritism especially for those with a fairer skin tone if you know what I mean. The company expects for you to be 1000% committed to a job that does not pay well. Management will attempt to fire you despite great performance (especially if you aren’t the right color) and on top of that team leads have no leadership skills whatsoever. Oh and if you’re looking for a job that ends at the time indicated on your schedule you’re at the wrong place.

Pros

The team itself and the coworkers were rad. Everyone is positive and supportive but not in a toxic positive way.

Cons

--its really bizarre policy to make your plus ones pay for the game...on training games. And do you get paid while training on a game? Nope. Ive never seen any other escape room operate that way and it came off so greedy that friends I brought almost questioned me working there. -very passive aggressive store management. Yes its important to have professionalism but management will get on you for petty small things that made no difference to the guest experience. They also dont seem to be familiar with workers laws in the location theyre managing. --starting out they'll send you home early rather than taking time to train you on everything. If its a tiny bit slow, you get cut. This makes pay incredibly unstable and the pay was already abysmal for the area. --I didnt mind company values at first but it rapidly becomes clear that their generosity and integrity values are only for guests, not for employees. In fact they'll be incredibly stingy towards you. --once your hours stop getting cut, if you've stayed in the trenches long enough, now they suddenly put you on for 11 hour shifts. And schedule requests are often ignored. --if I ever end up rich I want to buy the company out and run it better out of sheer spite.
