The bonus incentive is also a con because the quality control department is inconsistent at best, failing you for things that aren’t listed in the scope of work requirements. The goal post is constantly moved when it comes to requirements for bonus. Only 5 sick days per year and you are not allowed to use vacation time or floating holiday time to cover missed days if you are sick or have a family emergency.
