Poor pay for duties

Pros

Possibility of moving up in the company. Bonuses are good if you are at a larger store, otherwise the pay alone is insulting.

Cons

Company sets unrealistic goals for smaller stores. A lot of money wasted on deliveries. 12 hour shifts with no breaks and only 30 minute lunch (which has to be a violation). Shed are covered with bird crap

Pros

You do have an opportunity to learn about the process of home building and network with some of the better contractors in your area, helpful if you are a homeowner.

Cons

Long hours, poor pay, "at home self study course" requires that you train yourself off the clock or lose chance to get a full share of the store bonus. If your boss smokes cigarettes, there will be smoking inside a facility that isn't heated or cooled, HR openly states they "tend to hire women at the Corporate office", and the racist/homophobic commentary from co-workers gets old fast.
