Pros

Good workers, decent customers, I at times believed in the products

Cons

I was Store Manager and NEVER was paid minimum wage. I was expected to work up to 70 hours a week for $700. My lowest paid employees were paid more then me. I was constantly sexually harassed by my Franchise Owner (we are both men) making me EXTREMELY uncomfortable. The company uses the franchise agreement in order to make the most money, while taking ZERO responsibility for the direction of their company. They turn a blind eye to legitimate criminal activity. Do not work here unless you are a new immigrant looking for an immediate hire job, and to improve your English skills. The company also supported a "shotgun effect" with their own products, where they would require a Franchise Owner to buy every terrible (mostly quality-wise decent but wouldn't sell,) thus putting further strain on the bottom line. 7 Select products simply don't sell, and are a cash grab.

Pros

good work value and environment friendly

Cons

The manager would call my phone at 3 am to tell me to unload a truck full of drinks alone, constantly, even though it was never mentioned or docked as pay.

Pros

Pay, Schedule Flexibility and Local Teams - That is where the pro's stop

Cons

Upper Management don't seem to have a clue! They do cuts throughout the company every 2 to 3 years just to hire back/hire new people into roles they eliminated 6 months earlier. They say they value people and their concerns but the majority of workers say nothing about the toxic work environment created by Zone Leaders and above in fear of being singled out. They create positions that don't add value to the field and add more and more work onto field staff. Size of areas continually change - first its 10, then 12, then 16, back to 12 and back to 14+ stores. No consistency in there direction, they train you to manage the whirlwind but the problem is...... they create the whirlwind! Upper Management is a do as I say, no questions asked
