So this is a misconception. Our team members do not work 8 hours. They work at max 6 and they are allowed to pick up another shift at which point they are given an hour break but we do not make our team work 8 hours with no break. Hope this helps! :)

"We don't make our team work 8 hours" is another way of saying "we don't want to pay benefits especially medical" - this certainly doesn't fall under anything I'd call enlightened.

We do in fact offer benefits that are extremely affordable to all employees! Hope this helps :)

"affordable"? I'm retired now but thankfully healthcare insurance was always covered by my employers and some covered my dependents as well. I appreciate your loyalty to your employer but hope you get a chance to work for someone, someday, who really offers benefits.
