Pros
Crew teaches a lot about positive work environment, organization, and even more important subjects such as mechanical skills and leadership that really help you for the rest of your life. If you put in atleast a year at Crew. It will look good on your resume to anyplace local. Many local business in the state of Indiana actually try to recruit Crew employees cause they know they are trained well in customer focus and many other aspects. Even some employers I've been told are "wow'd" when they see Crew on job history on a resume. It's for sure a great experience that can set you up in the future if you play your cards right. There's also a great opportunity to move up in the company. I cannot count how many associates I've seen move into a management position, and management move into maintenance, office support, etc.
Cons
Performance is key but it can bite you in the rear if you don't stay on top. Regular performance appraisals and reviews are common. Mystery shopper reports with bad grades and lead to termination. The companies does a good job on their company promise but I have seen it fail multiple times. I've seen favoritism and fraternizing happen a lot even though the company claims to be strictly against it. I actually lost a promotion to someone who should have been fired for inappropriate manager associate relationships. But since they were the favorite, they ended up keeping their job and advancing at the same time. Which caused a lot of people to quit or get fired in the process.
