Great pay but toxic culture and poor management

Pros

Great pay with decent benefits

Cons

Bad personal. A lot of envy and jealousy in this job. Alot of favoritism they pride themselves on culture but the trainers they have have horrible culture and attitudes.At one point we were forced to finish our orders before going to lunch so sometimes we would go to lunch an hour after they tried giving you 45 mins so you wouldn't say nothing. The last week I was employed they changed course but I still filed a complaint with the labor board of California. Lastly they say they have an end time so you work hard all day and then they send you over to anoether department were they determine when your leaving because they give you more and more assignments

Pros

It’s a very fast paced and physical environment if you enjoy that. The store is standardized so if and when you are sent to other stores it’s fairly easy to figure out what’s going on because it’s always the same layout and procedure. The pay is good and it’s a smaller team. If you get to be in management you really learn a lot.

Cons

The specific store that I worked at was terrible because of management and favoritism. Outside of the specifics of that store, it can be a really stressful company to work for since they care so much about KPIs and speed the way that other stores do not. They also have a lot of strict rules like their attendance policy, which essentially gets you fired after being late 3 times by 5 minutes. Their schedules are based on sales so you may get stuck working hours you didn’t ask for and it’s really hard to get management to change them because the team is so small.

Pros

A growing company with opportunities consistently open. Store operations leadership is awesome.

Cons

Extra hours put in can sometimes correlate to the salary balancing out to be more aligned with the average. The corporate culture created does not have much diversity. Career growth tends to stem amongst the same demographics. Not much growth as minorities outside of store operations.
