Run Away this Company is awful!

Pros

The only pro is that you will have time to do other things unrelated to the job.

Cons

Terrible working conditions. The pop-up shops are lowkey inhumane to work in. Training is poorly done and rushed. Managers say they care about what you have to say but when you bring up valid claims they literally just make excuses on why things are the way they are and why they won't change. There's no real opportunity to move up or around in the company. They're just going to give you more work with no additional compensation. This is literally the worst job I've ever worked at.
