Pros

I worked with a fantastic group of people and an amazing manager (whom I will not forget). Had a nice store, a bit under staffed, but kept us busy. Also had quite a few great customers that came in all the time and they made the job worth it.

Cons

Had some difficulty with members of the corporate structure and other area stores...a lot of drama involved in between stores. Also had some very nasty customers, which sometimes resulted in calls to police.

Pros

Benefits such as health/medical insurance

Cons

Massive company. I worked a couple different roles from the “corporate” side, even if I was in stores a lot of the time. One thing I learned is that the “office” or “corporate” roles don’t really have a day off. Sure, it’s a Monday-Friday job but it’s like regardless of what you do there, you’re on call in some way but there isn’t any sort of incentive in return. You’re likely not going to get a sufficient work-life balance working here, because, again, someone is going to be calling or emailing you on the weekend or in the evening where either you have to handle it, or pass it onto someone else who can. Lack of thorough vetting has resulted in unqualified leadership with challenging management styles that hurt daily team morale.
