Pros

This group is more like a big family than a job. Brandon, (Location Manager), and Linette (Asst. Manager) are amazing to work for, they will do anything to help out and it isn’t out of the norm to see Brandon out washing busses, both of them driving routes and always helping with questions or issues that arise.i loved this job, so much, I had to take care of personal issues and my health, but will always feel thankful to this job for taking care of me and giving me the opportunity to work with them.

Cons

Zero. I can not think of one negative thing.

Pros

Good pay per hour. Lets me bring my baby. Has good dental and vision insurance for cheap.

Cons

Management sucks for the most part. Also everytime the kids are out of school, you don’t get paid.. so that leaves you making about $13,000 a year which is INSANE. 😡 I have to use health insurance through the government because theirs is too expensive
