Pros

Nothing. During the covid-19 crises they "permanently" laid off over half their employees after reassuring EVERYONE who worked there that the company was concerned with keeping people employed. Over half the people they "let go" had underlying medical conditions and they only reason they were let go was so the company would not have to pay benefits for anyone who would have been in the "at risk" group. The whole thing was as shady as shady could get. Nothing but lies and fake "friends".

Cons

This company expected you to give up your life entirely for them after saying they offered a work life balance. The work life balance was for upper management to take time off to meet up for "quickies" and take care of "family business" while on the clock. There is no room for advancement unless you have an "in" with ops managers. Do not believe a word this company says. It really is nothing but lies.

Pros

40 hours paid volunteer time Pretty good pay for hourly tellers Employer paid health care

Cons

24hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year - never close, not even if severe weather warnings are in place, not even if building has been flooded and has water still pooling, not evn if building has been damaged because someone drove their car into it. NEVER CLOSE Huge turnover means constantly short staffed, constantly having to come in early, stay late, or work extra shifts. Poor communication from Senior management down. Store managers often don't have the answers needed and there isn't a clear way to find the answers. Corporate preaches about having open door policy but then either take forever to answer or make you feel dumb for asking a question. Also a lot of time the answer is just "ask your manger" Try to justify overworking people with benefits and competitive pay. You might make good money but you will be so overworked you'll never get to spend it. Lack of integrity, had a district manager make frequent promises and offers but never delivered on them. Know of an employee that made up a false harassment claim, admitted it was a lie, and still got to keep his job with no repercussions. Performance tracking systems are inaccurate but are the only thing your review is determined by, Know of a manager that copy and pasted one employee review and gave to her whole team

Training Process

Pros

They have decent pay at $18.25 an hour.

Cons

I went in for training class. My application was expedited just to be able to attend this training class. I received an email stating training attire was a black shirt and black pants or khakis. I wore a black shirt and black jeans. I do not own a pair or khakis. When I arrived at training, I was greeted by an employee named Anthony. We chatted and he said that someone named Christine would come around to collect IDs. When Christine made her way around to me, she told me that she could not allow me to continue on with the class due to me wearing black jeans even though the email never specified that I could NOT wear black jeans. It just said black pants. Anthony told me that he had some khakis in his car. I followed him to his car and he got out the khakis. As soon as we re-entered the building, Christine said that someone would reach out to me to start with another training class. I wasn't even given the opportunity to at least try on the khakis. I think it's very ridiculous to not at LEAST let me try on the pants for this orientation. I don't think that my pants would've hindered my learning on the first day or in general, given that the job is in a call center with no customers. This moment alone told me that the company is absolutely not worth working for.
