Pros

The store is customer friendly to a fault. The section managers and leads are excellent, It is a fun and family friendly environment. The discount is ok. The associates are a great group of people to work with. The vacation benefits are good.

Cons

The company is not very associate friendly. Only one holiday off per year (Christmas), the store will stay open regardless of how slow. Training is poor. Pay raises are poor. Health benefits are poor. Employee recognition is poor. Care for employee welfare is poor. Two key personnel in upper management foster a toxic environment towards employees. Lunches are too short and breaks are simply not a priority.

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.
