Cons

- Poor companywide communication, internally and externally, for operational efficiencies and financial growth. - Uppper management's choice to toleratingabusive and hostile internal managment behaviors, preventing long term employee growth and a team environment. - Effective management courses and/or "retreats" not offered to balance internal technical skill sets and personal skill sets for a valued professional atmosphere and work life balance. - Upper management and HR's choice to ignoring and/or dismissing observed questionable management behavior such as lack of effective leadership. - Failure to acknowledging employee "wins", rather offering consistent critism due to personal favoritism.

Pros

World's largest convenience store chain and still growing in store count at a healthy pace every year. Attractive to vendor partners given its size.

Cons

As with any large franchised retail chain, making progress takes a lot of perseverance. The company is very operations focused (rightly so). If you have no interest in earning your stripes in operations, you are not going to go too far.
