Pros

The pay is Fair not the best

Cons

HR and management horrible and then they put all blame on supervisors but everything that they state that they’re doing to make a better workplace Is a Nothing is me done This is why they have employees who don’t show up to work or just quit even the new ones coming fresh out of orientation will come to training at the one day and not return and this is the reason.

Pros

- Full time hours are incredibly consistent, and usually flexible if you have an occasional doctors appointment - Predictable "busy" time during the lunch rush with the Amgen campus - Actual benefits! - Weekends off and major holidays off with the rest of Amgen campus, total 9-5 job if that is what you want right now.

Cons

- On your feet A LOT , Make sure to get good quality shoes. - Work is consistent, but tedious. I once sat at register duty for about 4 consecutive Horus without a rotation (pretty boring, but again consistent) - No obvious growth opportunity.
