Pros

There are. It really any pros that come to mind if you are an young adult trying to build up so that you can be financially stable.

Cons

I was hired on part-time at $9hr definitely not enough to pay all the bills but it's a part time job I wouldn't expect anything more. Until I was told I was not allowed to get a second part time job... even if that meant bills didn't get paid. No flexiablity at all. Nothing like working here is advertised. And there is no chance of fulltime.

Pros

Good compensation including not just standard pay, but also end of year bonus 80 hours for hourly associates, 8% of your annual earnings granted to you in free company stock thru which quarterly dividends are paid, ok 401k, and gift card and other associate coupons. Good stability and growth. Good company culture.

Cons

Can be slow and resistant to change. Uses some antiquated systems and software that should have been replaced years ago. Does some things that don't make sense. Some managers can be good, while others not very good. Although these cons may be true for a lot of companies. All roads eventually lead to Lakeland where they are headquartered. Geography can be a big one if you are not a Florida native. If you don't want to live in Florida for some legitimate reasons, there can be limited job options in other states, especially if you aren't interested in retail or warehouse jobs. Standard retail negatives about not having a lot of holidays off.
