Pros

Room for promotions, work with great people, and assisting customers with great service. I have seen the company grow over the years.

Cons

Work a lot of hours, not enough payroll to keep the store going to it's expectations as a manger. Also hard to maintain shrink which is very important to my whole team with hours dropping every week.

Flexible schedules, great opportunities for advancement, solid values of serving others, fun!

Heavy workload, limited payroll, tight controls on what we can pay Store Managers which makes it hard to compete with other retailers.

Pros

I can't think of any

Cons

Run you on a skeleton crew no payroll hours, DMs are lazy and don't care about managers or their team just results. Crazy high expectations if you are a store manager unless you can get a crew of people who all have to be part time with minimum wage work/stick around you are going to be living at your store hope you don't have a family cause you wont see them.
