What I liked
Great pay and benefits!
What I wish was different
They were always understaffed.
Advice
I was thrown into this position that usually requires a substantial amount of related work experience. I had no experience but they were impressed enough and needed an employee bad enough that I got hired. I didn't even know I would get paid $17/hour until after I was hired!

One piece of advice I would share about this experience is that it is important that you keep a positive mentality. If you come to your place of work with a negative mindset, then your work will reflect how you feel.
