Pros

The teams at the store are wonderful and the work environment are genuinely fun.

Cons

Corporate is a mess, they penny punch wherever possible, pay insultingly low wages, provide horrible costumer service electronically to customers that order online, and stab their employees in the back with policies designed to make them feel valued while paying them as little as possible.
