Pros

You work at the Georgia Aquarium. I guess it's a positive. Most of the customers are nice.

Cons

The pay is terrible. You only get a 15 minute break. You're on your feet for six hours. This is a stop gap job. Retail work is too simple. Take the job if you like being a servant.

Pros

Hours are flexible. They really work with your schedule. Location- The Gift shop is inside the Georgia Aquarium which is in a word...Cool

Cons

Despite working at the aquarium you do not work FOR the aquarium so you have separate benefits than aquarium employees.

Business Outlook

Pros

Casual environment. Nice workplace with gym. Focus on healthy living. Good benefits, part of your health insurance is paid if you participate in healthy living. Balance work-life environment.

Cons

CEO Larry Gilbert has all but abandoned his company by moving himself away from corporate headquarters. What he has left behind are non-qualified leaders full of empty promises and fake smiles. Morale is low. Communication is non existent. Systems/Data Integrity are either broken, out of date or not applicable to the company model. No structure. No training. They desperately cling to what they believe is a company culture but it only takes a new employee a few weeks to realize that "culture' means a ping pong table in the backyard. Pay is well below competitive in the work force with no chance of upward growth. Leadership has no interest in your future goals.
