Pros

Fast growth if you are under the right manager and are a good worker. I had a good manager so I grew very fast. Always learning new things. Paid holidays off as long as you have people to cover it. It is up to you to build a solid team and train them.

Cons

The pay should be more for having to be available 24-7. If someone calls out, you have to get it covered, or go in. Your responsible for everything in the store.

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.
