Pros

Easy job no brains required.

Cons

The management is clueless. Also they will not pay you unless you bank with them, and do not bank with them, they are horrible. Pay is hard to understand and don't expect to get your last pay check on time if at all. Not an honest company to work or bank with.

Pros

Not open on Saturdays so weekends off. Will not pay overtime, so always a 40 hour week. Good 401K. Free food and pop.

Cons

Cheap, Cheap Cheap. Will not spend money for the proper tools to do your job. Example: Cheap copy machine/printer down all of the time. Computer system EXTREMELY inadequate for the times. A lot of manual work because the system can't handle it. Pay is very poor. Will not hire enough staff to adequately and properly do the work. I literally had a headache after work for my last 6 months there. POOR COMMUNICATION. Lack of honesty on what they tell their employees. They say they treat their employees like family but cheat them in little unexpected ways in benefits. They only started offering bereavement pay a few years ago. Before that, who cares if you spouse dies. Ended up with Wa Fed due to an acquisition. Would never intentionally work there.
