Pros

Free drinks and discounts on gas

Cons

Hr is a joke. Job pays you minimum wage but asks a manager amount of work. You work alone most of time but are constantly watched by cameras. Boss doesn’t do anything and expects you to pick up there slack and when you don’t they wright you up. You will get lead on to “better opportunities” but will be thrown under the bus at any chance given. Do not work here most people quit within the first month.
