Pros

I was hired with the understanding that this company put "people first". Initially, the training was excellent and the salary package for a FSR during the first few years of employment good.

Cons

This company fired me while I was acting as the sole caregiver for my mother, who passed away from COPD. I requested FMLA time, as mom had suffered a heart attack, and the next day, a FedEx truck arrived with a termination letter. Do not consider this company as a career, for it will leave you, as it left everyone in our district, disappointed.

Pros

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Cons

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
