Pay is horrible, tips are lack luster. Even if theres absolutely nothing to do because the shop is dead, they make you clean the same counters, sweep the same floors, Clorox wipe all the handles like a million times a day.
Pay and benefits are completely behind the times .
They expect you to be in your suite and hair and shoes covered before you even clock in . Which could be considered working off clock . Leadership seems to treat people like they are Children. Told of employees who have been with the company 2+ yrs and not been given a raise . Excuses found to not provide raises.
The work itself is very rewarding & i loved learning about how to grow marijuana & care for it in general. They prefer uneducated compliant workers so no experience needed.
Cons
Head grower has no idea what they’re doing. There’s no sense of direction. The quality of plant life is POOR. People are scrutinized when they ask simple questions to management. Whole departments have been placed on “probation” when a raise was expected & earned. Little to no communication to technicians. Managers have no management experience. Constantly short staffed & everyone is over worked. Very stressful & toxic environment. While I was employed I had multiple coworkers that were with child & worked throughout their entire pregnancy, & they were denied maternity leave even though they had been employed for over a year. Mold/fungus growing in all the grow rooms because of inability to control ideal growing conditions for plants. Management knows & doesn't care to fix it/doesn’t know how to. This is just one of the ongoing problems that they are aware of & ignore it. When I tried to raise these concerns to management & communicate with them about a solution I was told I have poor communication skills because they can’t stand hearing that they’re doing anything wrong at all. I learned after that to not ask questions & that if you do, they see it as being against their business. Even though it’s failing.
