Pros

This was a hybrid job with a variable schedule. Good benefits. Culture promotes a caring environment towards associates who are not in management.

Cons

Management expects 50hr work weeks on a 40hr a week salary. Favoritism is vastly apparent throughout the company. To move into a senior management level there many hoops to jump through and always something else to obtain. Career growth is stagnate one you are a manager. You do not get to select your own team they are assigned to you. The current region managers do not respected past experience an will only advance you career once you reach a number of years with in the company.
