Pros

The only pro that I have for my role is the fact that I had a fantastic GSM in the department I worked in: the GSM invested in me as a human who has a life off the clock, not just as an outfitter at work

Cons

In my particular location, we had both a GM and AGM change at the same time, and the company did a terrible job finding the new upper store management. The company did not look at the volume of sales our store produced and tried to find qualified candidates, much less promote from within for any roles within my location (I was denied twice from in-store advancement)

Pros

Good discount on in house brands

Cons

Toxic management runs rampant at most stores, multiple managers keep their jobs after saying racist or sexist things to both employees or customers. If you’re a good worker they expect you to do the work for your coworkers who are lazy / not doing their job and if you complain you’re the problem. Pay is a joke. Annual raises are never more than $0.20 a year, sometimes as low as $0.07.
