Pros

Hourly employees are only permited to work while on the clock, off clock work could lead to termination and just isnt necessary. They hire competent college graduates to participate in training programs, and with expereince they can earn management positions.

Cons

Advancement opportunities are very limited at this point because the company is not expanding. Very difficult for employees to go from part time to full time. Part timers only work the union minum hours, so don't depend on a lot of hours and money therefore.

Pros

Fun Job. Time flies when working. Learn new skills.

Cons

Management does NOT care about you only the work you do. You will be overworked and underpaid. Very little training and they expect you to know everything within a couple weeks. Managers are lazy and will put their work on you! Work place is full of drama and creepy people that HR looks the other way because of 'popularity'. This is not the only location with problems the whole company is a mess. Constantly switching out district managers. Ops were horrible, they would come boss everyone around to try to make the shop look perfect in 1 shift, often making a lot of people miss their breaks and work overtime. Frozen loads and products would go to waste due to miscommunication between managers and no one seemed to ever want to fix any problems. Extremely low morale and high turnover. Stay far away from this place unless you're really sure you're only staying a while.
