Pros
Look, if you are looking for a company that doesn't limit your professional growth GNC is second to none. I have to say that this is a place that hard work is eventually recognized and since the company is still growing, there are ample opportunities for every employee to rise amongst the ranks. It's an exciting company to work for because it's the leader in an industry that's cool and sexy... being in shape, and taking care of your health is in!!!
Cons
It's a job!!! You get paid to perform a job... if you like to 'not be bothered' and be left alone to do a task at your pace, or want to blend in and perform mediocre work, don't apply here. I am not saying that to be discouraging to anyone but I find that there are two types of people in the work place-- those that want to do a great job and want to get recognized, and those that need a paycheck and only want to perform the minimum-- just enough to not get yourself fired. If you are one of these people that like to relax and kind of waste time at work and look for "down time" opportunities to goof off... this ain't the place to work. The reason is that the work force if very lean, so you are expected to do a lot, I mean every sales associate is expected to do what many Store Managers may do in other retailer environments. That's good and bad... you do a lot for what perhaps some people feel can be better paid.. but the flip side is that you are actually learning to be a part of management without realizing it, and eventually career growth opportunities begin to appear.
