Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

Extremely Inadequate training. Poor upper management. Endless work load. Inability to focus on your job as manager when you spend most of your time on a register during your shift. Always and I mean always short staffed. Low pay. Massively high turnover and I see why. I could go on for days about the cons...

Pros

Not many to speak of. Pay is consistent I guess

Cons

No raises. The amount of work you're responsible for there does not equal the compensation. Corporate couldn't care less about the store employees.
