Fake it, until they make it

Pros

Unfortunately the only pro that comes to mind was pay day and sometimes that was delayed and not communicated properly in advance.

Cons

Favoritism, unorganized, underpaying, complacent positions, lack of communication, lack of training, racism, No respect or understanding for life outside of work, No set procedures for very important work, Out dated SOP's if any at all for some departments, Processes constantly changed with no communication, Schedules were changed abruptly and with no time to accommodate, Overworkers, Rude and disrespectful management, unethical practices, lack of raises for promotions, delayed annual reviews, Incompetence, HR was never any help regarding any issues. And I also felt as if they didn't care about their employees as long as a body was in a chair during all shifts.

Terrible Management - worst experience of my life

Pros

I cannot think of one good thing to say about this company.

Cons

No on-boarding process. No documentation on anything. Classic micro-management. They want to hire people at below-market wages so they can make more profit. Upper management believes all of the contractors are over-paid. No chance for advancement. A lot of turnover. They do not compensate you for overtime.
