Pros
It's a small group of people that you manage, so it's easy to create connections with staff. Other than that, quite literally nothing.
Cons
- You're told you make your own schedule. Guess what? You will be actively on-call from 8am to 4am the following day. Say goodbye to your personal life. - Absolutely zero support from your regional manager, and you will not have an assistant manager. Good luck doing it on your own, it's 24/7 stress. - You will spend a week in Philadelphia to get training. You will learn very little, and when you come back to start managing your own store you will feel lost and unsupported. - Your clientele will consist of completely insufferable people. Drunk, high, rich, snobby college kids who will make you feel less-than. You've got thick skin? So do I, it really gets to you after a while. - The salary offered for this amount of responsibility is nothing short of insulting. - The turnover rate at Insomnia is the highest I've ever witnessed at any of my previous places of employment. There's a plethora of reasons why, and the corporate office does not try to improve on any of them.
