Business Outlook

Pros

It is easy to get a job here. All you have to do is just walk in and perform a background check. If you pass, the job is yours. One manager was really a nice guy.

Cons

Poor customer service and uneducated management. The management does not require respect from their employees so service is sacrificed. Employee training is awful.
