Pros

My paycheck - really that's it!

Cons

No HR to follow California guidelines, high health rates, no bonuses, no structure, horrible management, everyone walks on egg shells, cut throat, no team work, back stabbing, yelling and screaming, extremely shady, sweep issues under the rug, no morale, and the list can go on and on.

Pros

The perks at this company are good. Free movies, free popcorn & soda, bring your friends free...meet the occasional celebrity. Not a bad job for a young professional.

Cons

The company is confused about objectives and who is in charge of what. Positions, goals and job titles are ambiguous at best. It is very difficult to get clarity on anything, because senior management ignores middle management. I always felt this was intentional. It seemed to me that nobody wanted to take responsibility for anything, but at the same time, lower level employees were told not to make a move without corporate approval. Employees were always in a "Catch 22" situation. If/when corporate responded to actions taken by theater level staff, it was always "Why did you do that?" or "Why didn't you do that?". This included a full spectrum from approval for sales at concession to permission to start a Facebook page. Employees felt frustrated, angry, ignored and powerless the entire time I was with the company. Ethical business practices were ridiculed and employees were humiliated for asking for higher compensation, clarification of expectations, work/life balance, etc.
