Pros

Coworkers were competent and motivated, most employees were friendly and made the store a welcoming environment. Salary and benefits were decent. Honestly loved most things about coming to work and speaking with customers.

Cons

Manager during the majority of my employment stayed in the office all day and ignored many customer related issues. District management always disagreed about things in the store but never gave realistic solutions or listened to feedback.

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.
