Pros

Good pay for a retail position.

Cons

People are not promoted on their skill, they are promoted based on how power hungry they are. This leads to terrible management. Corporate does not want to hear suggestions from employees. Creativity and innovation are discouraged. The guys at the top are sexist, bigoted, and childish. The only thing valued here is money. Customers don't matter, and employees don't matter. But the customer will always win, no matter the situation. Never forget that you are replaceable and hold zero value to them. This place would benefit GREATLY from a retail worker's union.

Pros

40+ Hours per week of work guaranteed.

Cons

A toxic work environment can lead to termination without warning. Senior management prioritizes their interests and the company’s well-being, often disregarding employees’ rights and legal obligations. HR’s role is to protect senior management and the company, potentially at the expense of employees’ rights. Senior management continually chooses to a blind eye to wrong doing of favored employees, while knowingly prioritizing punishment of lower employees using fabricated policies that aren’t actually within store policy and procedures. Lack of accountability, lack of transparency, and lack of integrity run rampant with in the store and company. Unethical hiring practices, and weaponized incompetence to justify the out right gaslighting of your financial income and incentives. Pay deductions common place.
