Pros

This used to be a great place to work while you were a student because you'd hit the top wage rate as a part timer right in time for graduation.

Cons

The new contract caps part time wages at $16/hour, after 5 years of employment. Minimum wage will be going up to $15/hour in January. That means that you get the opportunity to sort trash and literally get spit on by angry customers for 5 years before you can make a dollar above minimum. Meanwhile a full timer will take their sweet time in the back, away from all the customers, leaving you up front to fend for yourself while they make $29/hour.
