Pros

Benefits package is generous. Culture is laid back (eventually becomes a negative).

Cons

IT area is struggling to adapt to modern development practices and methodologies. Pace in some areas is more like watercrawl than waterfall. Too many "comfortable" folks in positions of influence just collecting a paycheck and not pushing company, leaders, and peers forward.

Pros

Could manage the business as I saw fit as through the lens of a business owner

Cons

Training was minimal and in a location very different than my future store. Staff I inherited was horrible and leadership was not transparent about the status of the store in regards to profitability and issues within the store or company for that matter. Company declared bankruptcy about 5 months after I started and closed my location. Not a great experience.
