Pros

-Fresh, innovative staff (great source of new friendships) -Fast-paced and fun culture -Great salary for GM position based on location of territory -Clear path of promotion/growth -Lots of room to develop your own processes and guidelines for your staff and contractors to drive results -Yearly leadership gathering at headquarters in Philly, PA

Cons

-Minimal to no support/training/resources in leadership roles -Promotions & sales for customers on app are not announced before they go live (thus cannot schedule staff accordingly) -No burnout support, very easy to get oversaturated through literal 24/7 communication on computer & phone, hard to get in touch with own boss because they focus on too large of a region and are doing their own job sometimes 12 hours a day -Largely disorganized & company puts revenue and territory growth over investing in and strengthening existing territories

Pros

Supportive Regional manager for sites

Cons

Lack of Accountability (Passing the Buck): Decision-making often lacks ownership, resulting in frustration and confusion when problems arise—issues are shifted rather than addressed. Unrealistic Expectations with Reduced Labor Budget: Increased performance expectations paired with significant cuts to labor budgets leave teams stretched thin and unable to meet demands effectively. High Turnover Among Operational Associates: The combination of workload pressure and no up-word movement leads to frequent employee departures at the associate level. Burnout Among Site Leaders: Site leaders are overwhelmed by the demands of managing intense workloads with insufficient staffing and appropriate labor hours support, has led to burnout and diminished morale. Insufficient Support Structures: There is a noticeable gap between what is expected of employees and the support (training, tools, manpower) provided to help them succeed. Reactive Rather Than Strategic Planning: Operational strategy often feels short-sighted, with decisions made on the fly rather than through proactive, long-term planning.
