Pros

This job pays the bills…barely.

Cons

There is barely any training. It’s literally throwing you in the deep end and expecting you to swim while getting comments of “it’s easy”. It’s not technical, but there are so many rules you have to be aware of and each facility has their own way of processing. New people don’t know what they don’t know, but the expectation will be that you do. Oh and the cat fights between employees, accusations of favoritism and bullying…pheww.

I think I got lucky because I love my team and work is fun with them.

Pros

Great team members and supportive, responsive, genuine team leads.

Cons

Low pay, especially considering stress and workload. No raises in 4 years. Constant write-ups for missing unattainable goals. Changed teams and managers involuntarily about 4 times during my career. Was hired as a lead, but they "reorganized" within a month, and I lost my title and privileges. As soon as I was getting the hang of the work, boom, they switch me to a new team with different work forcing me to relearn, and they wonder why I couldn't meet the goal. Terrible micromanagement, as in "what did you work on", "what are you doing" "why are you doing that" every single day. Only way to meet the goal number is to work 1-2 hours over your shift time off the clock. Health insurance is expensive and doesn't cover anything. Dental insurance won't even fully cover 2 cleanings in a year. Ever seen the show Severance? My girlfriend and I actually talked about how eerily similar the work experience is for this company.
