Not great

Pros

Pretty Good benefits and Vacation

Cons

They don't train you, you are kind of left to figure things out on your own and they are very cliquey... you get the sense that you are a bother if you ask a question. The people have been working there forever so they make zero effort to introduce themselves. They are big on Nepotism too... employee referrals got to keep their jobs in the pandemic when they let the rest of us go with no warning. Kind of messed up if you ask me... When you work here they play favorites and decide if they like you right away and if not youre completely ignored and not even acknowledged. Meanwhile "favorites" get to go on long lunches and have beers?
