Pros

The people at the store level; the clientele. Hours of operation, store events; 15% can be given back to a non-profit of your choice.

Cons

Corporate is out of touch. They spend like crazy so the store level suffers. They don’t mention you will be doing all web orders and have little time to make plan or grow your business. This company is not stacked in the employee’s favor. What many said was once great, is now gone.

Pros

Good benefit & Compensation Hybrid

Cons

The environment feels very chaotic, with teams operating in silos and limited cross-functional communication. There is little to no structured onboarding, documentation, or guidance for new employees, making it difficult to get up to speed. The lack of established processes and clear ownership creates unnecessary confusion, duplicate work, and inefficiencies that impact productivity. There is significant opportunity to improve communication, standardize workflows, and provide better support for new hires.
