Good job for a college student.

Pros

You get paid a dollar per stop on top of your hourly wage, you also get a week vacation after 6 months of continuous employment. After a year of continuous employment you earn your 2 week vacation.

Cons

Being made to work over your scheduled time without your consent, and then being made to "cut out" your overtime later on through out the week. It is extremely hard to make any sort of plans outside of work on any given day since you really don't know when you will be able to leave.

Pros

If you do not have a family or are just trying to get away from one, this company will provide you with an outlet. You will learn the value of family and personal time as you will have very little. Fairly easy job.

Cons

In a word 'burnout' Mgrs are expected to put in on avg 60 hrs a week and mgr trainees who work a 50 hr work week are expected to work off the clock to show their drive and ambition to advance. They staff their offices with the bare minimum number of employees and as such you are expected to come in even when very sick. I lost half my vacation time every year because we could simply not take it. Hard to find anyone with more than 5 years with the company because of the work environment. As a mgr - expect to live at the store

Pros

I do not want to list at this time. I will at a later date. Not what I expected at all.

Cons

As I stated above, not what I expected. I feel like a housekeeper. A good position for a younger person with no education.
