Pros

Store level leadership is, overall, very good. The business is very well established. The company and the Coborn family are well known for their involvement in the community and their philanthropy.

Cons

Corporate operates like they are still just 5 stores. Very change averse. Incompetent leadership of the IT group causes a very toxic "blamestorming" culture while at the same time holding no one accountable. Improper resource planning causes confusion and multiple failed projects because of misused resources and constantly shifting priorities.

Pros

Only pro is working with people you like and look forward to seeing.

Cons

The once a year raises suck. Overworked and under paid. Have to have 2 jobs just to keep up with the cost of living. Not equally paid for the amount of knowledge and things you do vs a new employee coming in. The company doesn't care how long you have been there and they try to force you out the door.
