Pros

Ilios is a good cafe, reasonable prices, changing menu selections. Opportunity to earn more than the $10 an hour base.

Cons

Commission is based on performance points, changes daily, there is a 2 page sheet to show earnings potential, impossible to project what you are earning until paid. Heavy stress, this is a sales environment, numbers constantly monitored and they effect commission and ability to keep your job. They all quote 5% turnover. My group of 8 is missing 3 in 90 days, little higher than 5%! Mass hiring and job fairs, hard to find people with tenure. You will work NIGHTS and WEEKENDS, hard to get 2 consecutive days off. Phones can be non-stop, one call to the next. Bathroom breaks are counted against your 30 minute break time per shift. Only job I have had where I hate going as you constantly hear employees talking about their numbers and fear of losing their jobs. Every document you will sign has the word "termination" on it, they do document to avoid unemployment.

Pros

Strong ownership, opportunity to manage people early, great people, nice campus. You will work on interesting problems and external companies. Great training if the space interests you.

Cons

Business future is uncertain, up or out management principles. New senior leaders somewhat disconnected from the day-to-day. Commute from Charlotte is horrible.
