Pros

Great Salary, company car, professional senior management, dedicated staff in-store.

Cons

Far too much of the "just get it done" mentality, which is what many junior (graduate) managers come to perceive in their first management role as being leadership. Communication at all levels is poor. Capacity in busy stores in danger of being outstripped by demand. Work/Life balance is poor, although if you're a graduate in your first job then why not...

Pros

pay is great, very fast paced, off most major holidays

Cons

luck of te draw wit upper management, some good, some horrible leaders. Most other complaints probably typical of retail/grocery business, (no vacation during major holidays, if you are management you're on call 24/7, very demanding of your time and energy)

Pros

Cheap health insurance and that is absolutely the only pro.

Cons

This Riverside, California office is very odd, mean spirited and the work is intense and does not pay well. They tell you on 1 of the 4 interviews ( all four on different days) that there is absolutely no chance for promotion. They offer no employee discount whatsoever. I've never worked for a retailer who did not offer some amount of employee discount.....this is an excellent indication of how they feel about their employees.
