Business Outlook

Pros

People you work with are kind and extremely helpful, prospect of full time contract appealing for morgage approvals, health insurance

Cons

Wages are the bottom of the ladder! Work is very strenuous and labour intensive, your work is never appreciated properly, gratitude is shown with a free burger or ice cream every now and again, bear in mind we are a medical company! Long service is not rewarded, you can be here all your life and still be on the same money!
