Great Pay, Good People, Lots of Overtime

Pros

Compensation including salary and benefits was great in the area I worked. The co-workers and work environment was friendly and there was rarely an issue. Opportunities to work from home were available.

Cons

Overtime is required and at times in large quantities. After awhile the amount of hours your are required to work can wear you down emotionally and physically. Interdepartmental communication is poor at best. A good starter job, but unless you make your way up the ranks this jobs can wear you out.

Pros

It is a great atmosphere, people are genuine. even the GM will get out on the floor & do the hardest jobs. LOTS of overtime at peak!

Cons

You will work really long hours during the peak season but you know this going into it. You are worn out by Christmas day.
