Business Outlook
Pros
After about 3 positions, they begin to recognize high potential and put you on a career development program. Also, there are a lot opportunities to advance laterally between corporate buying and in-store management. I'm told that it is important to know both in order to advance successfully in the long run.
Cons
It takes 3 whole positions before they recognize high potential. Hitting the ground running or advancing quickly from the start is impossible. There is an initial period of about 2 years where responsibilities come slowly and the work is "task-driven".
