      Poor retirement plan

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Good environment, nice colleagues, rainy weather.

      Cons

      The retirement plan is quite poor. After you leave they take back everything, you only get what you paid by yourself.

      Decent place for student part-timers (Campus dining)

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Friendly work environment - student managers and full time managers are by and large approachable and helpful especially. I also liked how the payment and clock in/out system was all automated, making the resolution of disputes of shift timings easily solved.

      Cons

      Depending on your shift, you might get pigeonholed into one particular support function at the dining hall most of the time. It is indeed more efficient and straightforward to allow part timers to continue improving at what they usually do.
