Started with high hopes and enthusiasm, ended with disappointment and disbelief.

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Free parking, no shortage of work, opportunities for training and education, fairly inexpensive benefits, lots of smart, motivated, and talented employees (non-managers)

Cons

Employee turnover very high, managers seem to be given cart-blanche to behave badly, treat employees poorly, and be generally incompetent. Yelling, threatening, cursing, lying, and throwing things at staff went unaddressed despite reports to HR and that the behavior was well known between several locations.
