Pros

Pay was great, free chipotle was always a plus, the hours were consistent, paid sick days even if you were only part time, and everyone was always nice there

Cons

SEVERELY PHYSICALLY DEMANDING. Chopping up veggies 8 hours a day while trying to keep up with the pace of each of my deadlines gave me carpal tunnel for a year and half. I couldn't grip on anything anymore with my right hand. I would wake up everyday with swollen fingers, they couldn't move properly and instead the bones would just click. By the end, the doctor demanded I quit before it got even worse.

Pros

Lots of flexibility and good company benefits. Cool office space and good people. The company wants you to learn more and give you the opportunity to do so.

Cons

In the corporate space, very limited career growth opportunities. Current manager micromanages but not terribly. Company performance stinks and leadership does not want to take accountability.
