Greatly expanded my resume!

Pros

Family friendly atmosphere, with great benefits. Pay is always on time and usually correct. Owners are not pretentious towards the little ones who do the work! I received a few raises while there that exceeded average hourly raises.

Cons

There is a leader in one region allowed to treat people unprofessionally because of his connections in company. Not everyone seems to be held to same standards of acceptable attendance and work ethic. Which again is due to the fact that many are related or friends with someone in company. I am not sure the owners are aware of this or else maybe they are hiding their heads in the sand?

Supervisors are crooks!

Pros

There's really not many good things to say about this company. I feel sorry for the people that work in the building in downtown Chicago under this management.

Cons

Cleaning staff supervisors should take a class on how to be professional and abide to ethical practices.
