Pros

Great incentives, raffles, decent people.

Cons

Management should compensate employees for their merit and not give raises across the board. Not a motivation to take on more work while others slack off. Yearly reviews are with an overall score of 4, which never happens. They are designed to keep you at a certain level of pay and position. Benefits keep going up every year, but not the salary.

Pros

The checks don't bounce.For the most part fellow employees are good people. All in the same boat.

Cons

Unachievable goals set by company. Raises and bonuses giving out buy achieving those goals. A win win for them. Suburban has a history of only being concerned about the stock holder. Employees are the last thing the worry about.

Pros

The rate of pay was decent?

Cons

Overcharging customers while having to justify price gauging with the expectation of keeping every customer. Empty promised incentives for up selling. Interoffice drama, similar to the movie Horrible Bosses, yet this is not a comedic experience. Finally, there is no job security whatsoever. Witnessed innumerable lay offs, mass firing, unfair treatment of employees and intentional mistreatment to push older employees out the door who would otherwise be capable of continuing to work. Overall very poor place to work.
