Pros

Friendly and clean work environment with free lunch.

Cons

Company not forth coming in regards to average working hours for salaried employees. They will not pay you for overtime, which can be excessive and as much as 36 extra hours of overtime per pay period without any form of compensation. They will also dock your pay if you miss one day in a payperiod, even if you worked over the required 80hrs, which will happen more often than not. No value for work life balance and their processes are in total disarray as if they do not understand their own business. High turnover and heavily understaffed.

Pros

- Lots of Overtime. - Free food. - Decent benefits

Cons

- Overtime is mandatory, and you are guilt tripped if you do too much overtime. - The food at the cafeteria is not fresh. - At least a 1/3 of the employee workforce calls in sick, thus creating a high demanding workload for employees that do come in that day...everyday. - Very low chance of upward mobility - The workplace is very unsanitary (we're a catering company) - Highly unprofessional work environment - Overall toxic environment for the loyal diligent worker (you will be exploited)
