Pros

Team. Peers. Truly incredible people work here!

Cons

Pay! Truly a problem that needs to be fixed, especially on the associate level. Better way of looking at the local community and environment. We are surrounded by retail stores that are paying at least $4 more per hour on a average (starting pay). Culture is great but we are focused on a selling culture. We aren’t paying “salespeople” market pay, making it difficult for retention and recruiting.

Pros

Very black & white on policies. You always know what is right or wrong.Operationally strong company that allows movement between brands. Decent pay if you advocate for yourself as an external, but don’t expect much once you’re in.

Cons

Company has changed direction so much since COVID. Seems like there’s no clear idea on who we are anymore.Senior leadership feels like a revolving door that only succeeds in spinning tires with no traction. We love to initiate something only to either sunset it months later or leave it in limbo(WellPro). The amount of stress pushed on stores to meet credit goals is absurd to the point it inspires unethical behaviors in certain stores.
