Pros

Good discount. Good product. Attractive stores. Good investment on front end equipment to make cash functions better. Good customer rewards program.

Cons

Non-existent corporate training. Terrible working conditions. Treat managers badly and expect them to work many hours doing the jobs of front line employees to save on payroll.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- Performance expectations were often unclear or inconsistently communicated, Feedback was reactive instead of timely and actionable. - Leadership quality varied dramatically by manager, with limited coaching or mentorship. - Constant shifting priorities without adjusting expectations or workload. - Psychological safety was lacking, Honest communication feel risky. - Leadership messaging around culture didn't match day-to-day reality. - Process was often valued more than impact or results. - Compensation well below market, w/little flexibility during negotiations. - I felt excluded from key conversations and opportunities that were important to my success.
