Business Outlook

Pros

Ok wages for P/T positions

Cons

management is taking every opportunity to fire full timers over the smallest of mistakes to avoid the cost of benefits. they should be offering P/T non benefit positions to these employees and allow them to continue working. They have ruined several peoples lives in the last year as there are no similar opportunities in town. Employees fear "who's next"
