Pros

People who you work with really feel like family. Everyone helps each other and bands together to make sure things get done. They really care about your personal wellbeing

Cons

Hours expected to work are very long and the low pay means you are barely able to support yourself for the first few years in this career. Some of the older employees in high level management jobs aren't open to change and insist on sticking with old practices that are no longer effective in the changing environment.

Pros

If you are a reader - this is the place to be... the employees are nice, the hours good and they had a cafeteria when they were in Old Tappan NJ

Cons

Sometimes it can be stressful - busy. Some of the customers are upset and can cause stress - the hours can be long
