Vantaggi
Yurz offered the opportunity for a lot of people in Beaverton to get started in job. If someone wanted to get out of fast food or menial labor jobs, Yurz was a place to go to and get some training to start some sort of career. The only person in management who actually cared and worked for the employees was the HR Manager. She handled everything in the Beaverton office including doing the jobs of the other managers who were busy watching YouTube or their dog at daycare.
Svantaggi
That being said, Yurz was a place to use and abuse people looking for a way to start a career. Promises made were never kept. People were continually let go without notice on the whim of the CEO or the incompetent Sales or CS Managers. The only employees who benefited were the top sales people or the members of the Boys Club. The members of the Boys Club were the most uneducated, incompetent and lazy people in the company. Yet they were continually rewarded for their incompetence by the CEO including secret trips to grand locations where they partied to the hilt. The not-so-incredible thing was that the "boys" could not keep it a secret so we all knew they were off partying with the owner. The CEO touted them as "Production Meetings" and actually put pages of pictures of them partying in a company yearbook. Women in the company were undervalued and underpaid compared to men. Only pretty, tiny females were allowed to work at the front desk. Any support position within the company was seen as useless and unnecessary unless something was needed immediately. Once that piece of information was obtained, that employee's value was obsolete. The complete lack of benefits for hourly employees was appalling. The amount of money spent on the ridiculously overpriced holiday party could have provided paid holidays for all of the hourly employees for a year. Oh - but then there wouldn't be a tax writeoff...
