Pros

I enjoyed Food Truck Tuesday.

Cons

Where do I begin. First, there’s no diversity in leadership. Management feeds you a lot of false promises. Your role, title, and manager may change just because they say so. What happened to me was pretty much a demotion, even though they said it wasn’t and they were giving me more responsibility (without more pay, of course). Some management talks down to you and insults your intelligence. I’ve never felt so discouraged and incapable of doing what I’ve had years of professional experience in. They tend to hire/promote people/friends who can not fulfill their duties and you’ll be made to pick up the slack to cover their mistakes. You’ll get thrown under the bus a few times to cover up others mistakes. You walk by some management in hallway, who would rather look down at the floor than say hi to you. The mental abuse I received while working at NVI and other factors forced me to walk off my job.
