Pros

No one looking over your shoulder; flexible hours.

Cons

They have a system that no one in the company seems to be able to work. My district manager was wonderful, but above her, it was awful. They treat employees like slaves. When I was laid off, I was told on a conference call with 58 other people and the duration of the call was 7 minutes. Some guy, whom I did not know, read a script and it was so impersonal that I felt like a dog afterward and still do. Then, I get my final paycheck, and it is shorted by about 10 hours, and my vacation pay is shorted 14 hours. I call my DM, she calls HR, and I am told I need to email the payroll department. Do not take this job if you want recognition, or expect to be treated like a human with human feelings. Very sad.

Pros

They have an excellent benefit package.

Cons

I have been doing resets in stores. I am getting quite good at this, but Management is ruthless and hard to work with. They lie, yell, scream and threaten to fire us over anything. Anything and everything is an occasion to be fired. Sad to see a Company that operates like this. I am looking for another job and will leave ASAP. Would not recommend this job to a friend.

Pros

Weekends off, working independently, being out and about as opposed to working in one building, benefits as far as insurance and holiday pay are great, work/life balance was fantastic.

Cons

Pay was ok, but raises are rare. The main complaint was the sneaky way they handled a lay off. No idea it was coming and it was handled in a conference call.
