Pros

Good experience working with others and managing a team.

Cons

As a manager you will find out employees of yours make more money than you for less responsibility. Little opportunity to move up. No opportunity to renegotiate. Head office will advise you to cut hours of your employees at the drop of a pin. Managers typically make a bonus depending on the store’s success over and above quotas. Managers take lower pay in exchange for the quarterly bonuses that come if your store exceeds quotas. Headoffice often would increase the quotas half way through the month when your store was on a good trajectory. Never made a single bonus in my time there, and when covid began, bonuses and quotas were taken away entirely.

Pros

Easy job Discount Free samples(sometimes) Don’t have to deal with the public because it is only licensed professionals

Cons

You work alone for a few outs Also if you are scheduled Sundays you work alone. Some people come in and steal and it’s scary if you don’t know how to handle the situation. Especially if you are alone Even though you don’t have to deal with the public you do at the same time because some people come in and try to shop even though they don’t have a license.
