Pros

Pay, benefits, and work schedule

Cons

The Performance Management process is very time consuming and requires forced ratings based on overall percentages (very unfair). If you have 5 associates that are performing well, one must be given a lower rating to meet the forced numbers. In some instances a good performer will be penalized by the numbers game.
