Pros

1. Working concerts 2. Paid time and a half for holidays

Cons

They don't care about you and most of their employees are lazy. If you're sick and need to call out, they're either too lazy to find you a replacement and will personally lie to you and say there's no one or tell you to wait and won't call you back. I've told them that I had to go to the ER asap and if they could please send someone to come and replace me and they told me to wait 5 hours until my shift was over then go. If you need to replace your uniforms, but you work until the main office closes--no one will care to help you. You have to risk going on your break even if it takes long. They tell you about the weekly visits that they're going to make to check on you and your coworkers, but they never do show up unless something really bad happens. You can tell them in advance that you're not gonna show up to work on a certain day and they still won't remember. There's so much more that I've been through because of this dumb company and it hasn't even been a whole year yet. Just take my advice and don't even fill out the application for these punks.
