Not as good as it used to be.......

Retail merchandiser

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It's a job. More or less flexible hours. Benefits offered.

Cons

Absolutely no advancement. No pay increases. Depending on which division you work for, lots of drive time, minimal mileage reimbursement. If you do get benefits offered, you have to maintain a certain number of standard weekly hours or you will lose them. You have to inquire what those standard hours are because they do not volunteer the information. Even if you work 30 plus hours a week consistently, if you standard hours are 8 you will either not qualify for benefits or they will cancel them. Not trying to be bitter, just speaking from personal experience.

Pros

mentors- I had strong mentors that made coming to work tolerable

Cons

poor leadership, grinds employees down at the field office level, not challenging, ignores high performers, only a small group truly have growth opportunities, and if you're not in the HQ its hard to grow at all.
