Svantaggi
1) Not Flexible I'm a college student, I need to be able to work in the summers to help pay for school. I was told by my manager that I will be getting 20 hours max/week while going to school and 30+ during the summer. I got around 20 hours/week for the first 2 months. Summer came and now I work 8-12 hours a week. Not what I was told I would work during my interview.. and I specifically asked about the hours, which were the one and only deciding factor for me. After asking my manager if I could at least get fixed hours so I could try and work two jobs, he said I don't think I can do that for you. 2 )Zero Tolerance No matter the situation, if you're late.. you're late. Menards uses a point system for tardiness. Accumulate 10 points within 3 months and you're fired. No call no show = 5 points. Didn't know you worked? -No call no show. Work an AM shift and overslept more than an hour -No call no show. You could work for this company for 20 years and it wouldn't matter to them.
