Cons
Misleading new employees about the expected work hours. For example, when they hire you they tell you that you will be working four 10-hour shifts a week. However, because the pay period begins on a Saturday you actually work 6 DAYS a week, every other week when you have to work weekends. Not to mention, it's closer to 12-hour shifts than 10-hour shifts. Beware if you have children or other obligations. No PTO to test for COVID-19 or to quarantine even when the exposure is a confirmed work exposure Mandatory COVID vaccines despite the risks involved and the fact that it is a mandate and not a law Long hours (they tell you you're going to be working four 10-hour shifts when in reality every other week you work six 12-hours shifts) No upward mobility especially if you are not a white female No local Human Resources so be prepared for stoic messages from the virtual HR chat feature Paying for a union with no union representative or liaison when an issue arises Pep talks and empty promises from management when you address your concerns No PTO to test for COVID-19 or to quarantine even when the exposure is a confirmed work exposure
