Pros

Will work around your schedule

Cons

Horrible management, managers are backstabbers and two faced. Will talk behind your back. Low pay with so much work to do. Managers are very by "thebook". Coworkers are chill and funny tho. This place is filthy and just disgusting, no clean up crew. One of the managers has poor hygiene, stinks up the room and affects the coworkers. Personal space does not exist here. Patients are also rude and entitled, and the managers reward that type of behavior. Managers have no compassion towards others, not nice just rude and hypocrites. DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR SANITY!
