Pros

Company vehicle(you have to pay for it though)

Cons

Unrealistic expectations No work/life balance No support to the field from Store Support Center You're never truly off(if so you will fall behind on the huge workload you're expected to maintain) Managing a store for 6-12 months as part of your training(expect to run an old, run down store where you will work MANY hours EVERYDAY of the week with little to no guidance or support)

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
