What I liked
I liked the environment. It was very laid-back and my managers were very flexible when it came to missing work for appointments, vacations, etc. Everyone was really nice there.
What I wish was different
Some days were very boring. We would finish cleaning a building half way through the day and would have nothing else to do for the rest of the day. I wish we would have been able to go to a different building and start more work to keep us busy.
Advice
Work hard and your co-workers and managers will like you.
