Pros

Flexible Schedule Some Discount Paid Vacation Time Off/Sick Time

Cons

Does not fully support employees. Doesn't care about loyalty, and how much time an employee has been there. Does yearly reviews, but often says they don't " have the money for raises". You have to literally ask for raises, and keep on making your case. Really doesn't want to listen to employees. Weaknesses in Management- High turnover rate at some stores. Poor hires- Managers hired not always experienced in retail auto parts, and do not always know anything about parts. Mismanagement, and personnel issues. Some hire with the "buddy system" in mind, hiring people that are personal friends. Some managers allow some employees to do whatever they want, and get away with anything, and then write others up, and/or fire them for stupid reasons. ( Example: One employee had a known drug issue, but it was never addressed. She got hurt on the job, and refused to go to the hospital, because they didn't want to be drug tested.)
