Pros

Believes in celebrating success of others and recognizing those who have succeeded to different level within the company

Cons

Among some of the Area Manager there is huge amounts of favoritism. This company also base your performance on numbers. Looking at someone is a good form of constructive feedback, however this kills morale among associates and push many to find of places for employer.

Pros

Great place to move up if you work hard and make the right connections. Company highly values college degrees. Managers are usually fairly willing to help you in your career.

Cons

Starting pay is decent but not excellent, however you do get stocks fully vested at 2 years. Entry level pay caps out at $12.50, so if you plan on staying long you should definitely look into promoting. Hours can be long, and overtime is called often, but still an enjoyable place to work.
