Pros

The only pros are the fuel savings you get as an inner circle employee and good coworkers if you're lucky to have them.

Cons

The pay does not match the responsibilities they want you to take on. You can have a good store and/or assistant manager but upper management pulls the strings and have a habit of putting store and assistant managers in a bind forcing hours to be cut and solo shifts during busy store times.
