I used to be able to figure out what the company was when a certain staffing agency would try to disguise it because of the position and functions

I actually found the name of the company. I understand that it's an entry level position, but a company that huge only wanting to pay $10/hr to start off isn't worth. I live in a state with a high cost of living and I don't want to resort back to asking my mother for help every month. I declined the interview.

The owner of the company is worth over $60 million and they have branches all over the country.
