Pros

There are few pros to speak of when dealing with this company. The job is unbelievably easy and, at least at my store, the managers are generally very outgoing and pleasant as people.

Cons

While the managers are pleasant people they are terrible at their jobs often no effectively communicating about issues before they arise. They would often text last minute telling me I needed to come in early because of a call in without even checking if it was possible for me. In addition unlike other companies they actually enforce their rules but so much so to a point of detriment, I've worked for many jobs and this is the only job I've ever been written up at. In the 3 months I worked there I received 4 write ups 2 of which occured due to th previously mentioned lack of effective communication

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.
