Pros

There is nothing good about this company.

Cons

Six days training at another store. Then sent to my store to manage. Didn't know much of anything. Scheduled 25 hours average out of my 48 by myself to run register. Could not go to the bathroom. Those 48 hours I was scheduled, only get paid for 40. They already got 8 hours a week from me. Call outs, I had to cover. 43 weeks in a row no days off. Just did 22 days off in a row also. Could not leave when I was sick, no hours. Thank goodness no emergencies with my family. District manger has favorites, dose not return phone calls or texts. Company does not pay for 6 major holidays. Stole money because of health insurance.
