Pros

There are no pros to this job that make it stand out above any standard place of work. They pay you twice a month and if the manager likes you, they'll let you work from home.

Cons

Horrible, sloppy management with no clear communication. It's so bad that you might think that it's part of the plan to keep everyone in a state of chaos. Time management is insane, you will be begging for work to log your time to on a daily basis. If you don't have a full 8 hours logged at the end of each day, you will get written up. The turnaround is the highest in have ever seen at a job and I used to work retail during the holidays. Everyone is desperately looking for a new job so they can get out. And occasionally, management will hand out some seemingly random layoffs with no warning at all. You will be paid well below industry standards and you will have terrible benefits and PTO. Management is well aware of all of these issues and they have been ongoing for at least 4 years. They do not care because their clients are local and state governments who have no other options except for Agate. So even if they deliver a bad product, Agate is still going to get paid. This company is the worst of the worst. I would work at a gas station before going back here.

Pros

Very great company and great team overall! So much to learn, and functioned like a well oiled machine. Pay wasn’t terrific, but overall great place to work.

Cons

Pay could have been higher, and not too many opportunities for advancement.

Pros

There is a lot to learn.

Cons

Promises don't get kept and they let you do work above your pay grade without increasing your pay.
