Pros

Bonus opportunities, always looking to improve .Provides variety and job stability. World wide organization. Decent training and development. Recruitment from both inside and outside the company. In Edmonton, 8-12 stores approximately to each Field Consultant resulting in an effective and useful relationship. Ethical leadership principles in use. Adapting to new markets and looking to become a food destination.

Cons

Occasionally a lot of unpaid overtime until your stores infrastructure is settled . 24/7 operation so you are always on call. New store leaders from outside the company are often shocked at how much research and paperwork can be involved. Commute time can be irritating. Mix of full time and part time staff can result in understaffed or overstuffed scenarios.

Pros

Pay, Schedule Flexibility and Local Teams - That is where the pro's stop

Cons

Upper Management don't seem to have a clue! They do cuts throughout the company every 2 to 3 years just to hire back/hire new people into roles they eliminated 6 months earlier. They say they value people and their concerns but the majority of workers say nothing about the toxic work environment created by Zone Leaders and above in fear of being singled out. They create positions that don't add value to the field and add more and more work onto field staff. Size of areas continually change - first its 10, then 12, then 16, back to 12 and back to 14+ stores. No consistency in there direction, they train you to manage the whirlwind but the problem is...... they create the whirlwind! Upper Management is a do as I say, no questions asked
