Pros

Clean work environment,.not dusty and dark

Cons

management trigger happy to write up employees for minor infractions, moving rules and goals for little more than a whim. Business model contrary to a good work environment. Employees are generally stuck in a job with no chance for promotions. Pay scales are half of most national chains.

Pros

Family like atmopshere when I started. The employee discount. Flexible schedule if you remain a drone. If this is a second job or your never wish to climb the ladder you'll be fine.

Cons

Low wages. Becareful of what you do or say, as with most retail it's a petty-gossip entrenched retail chain. Dont expect support from upper district management, unless your friends with your DL. Advance has removed its assistant manager support from many weaker or non-prductive stores, expecting the slack to be absorbed by the GM and the rest of the Team.
