Pros

From the moment I interviewed, I was impressed with how professional and genuinely nice everyone is. I cannot say enough about the Operations Manager, Jay Maples. His diligence in making sure all of us, at our brand new site, are taken care of and happy is nothing I have experienced in the workforce. We all feel appreciated and valued, and I am happy that I was able to come onboard with this company. With everyone I have met, I can say Honesty, Integrity, and Trust are truly SunStates core values.

Cons

Only 40 hours of paid leave. No sick leave.
