Amazing Company To Work For

Recommend
CEO approval

Pros

Family like atmosphere, competitive salary base, room for advancement, open door and communication policy between all levels from CSR to CEO, ability to make independent decisions to meet customer needs within the parameters of the law. Great working hours hours, vacation package, and holiday pay.

Cons

Loss of vacation hours when not taken. And your not always able to take it due to lack of employee coverage. They have a use it or loose it policy when EARNED vacation should have a cash out option if given extenuating circumstances your unable to take it due to lack of coverage. Bonuses are offered but the payout compensation is lacking. This is truly the only major con to working for the company.

Pros

Well....the drug store is next door and wild wings across the street

Cons

If you have a degree or a few ....DO NOT look to get utilized to your potential. This company is a growing enterprise wide company with a mom-n-pop state of mind and budget..... 9/10 ya'll work under people with NO degrees who will feel intimidated and will show it. The GOOD-OLE-BOY system is alive and doing WELL at advance America.The positions are VERY UNDER-PAID.....making this only a job not a career.Some employees here will NEVER let you out shine them and/or they will only show you enough where they still have control over your job to the point where some will even embarrass you in front of management rather than help you out. People leave this place ALL THE TIME and some without putting in notices so do the math.
