Pros

Great place to work, probably would have stayed on. If have seen improeviroment an a bit more of a team environment.

Cons

Need more input from top down. Top management don't have a clue, what a shame. Seen many shining stars come and leave. For less pay an stress. The leaders are living a lie as to their management skills.

Pros

They have benefits and they serve two times meal breakfast and lunch, 40+ hour guarantee, great airport working experience and a lot to learn within short period of time.

Cons

They pay $8 not what written on glassdoor or other online job search as $9 . The pay is less for the kind of work load. its sad when you see people you don't expect stealing from the company and some people are really massively stealing all kinds of things especially liquors, I wonder if the cameras and security are really working.
