Pros

Pay was decent and benefits are fairly standard to the market.

Cons

No training. Just hard and fast learn on the job with no direction from leadership. And they will expect you to have results very quickly with no training. Systems are an absolute mess. No consistency or continuity. People don’t show up to meetings (and there are TONS of meetings) with no explanation. Meetings scheduled constantly with no context. Leadership says they will do something with ZERO follow through. My overall take is that it’s all smoke and mirrors but if you pay attention in the interview process, you will see all the red flags.

Pros

The gave frees lunch everyday and you can get paid the same day you worked

Cons

Everyone is new and no one that has experience to train new hires wasted a lot of time in training and then when you needed help not everyone was in good spirits to help
