Pros

They do pay their employees on time and have paid time off as long as you don't use it

Cons

The CEO is a complete jerk. Runs around the office swearing and just generally being passive/aggressive towards everyone. Their compensation structure changes based upon the whims of the CEO. The entire plan is a scam to get people to pay for advertising in a free magazine that has very little circulation. All circulation numbers are based upon a certain amount of printing and a total "guess" on how many people actual pick up the free, crappy magazine in a waiting room.

Pros

I worked here for years before getting laid off. The environment is very laid back and the work load can be pretty light depending on your job title. Scheduling is flexible, benefits are decent, and I was more or less my own boss.

Cons

People quit or get fired/laid off and instead of being replaced they just throw more work at the existing employees without compensating them fairly. There is no seniority - during my years and years working here I consistently saw people advance faster than I did and get paid more. You might get a "promotion" but your title will never change and you will not get a raise. You will hardly make enough money to even live on, and your peers in retail will be making more than you.
