Pros

As a 1st assistant manager you get decent entry level pay. The training is good for the basic programs and policies. Good people to work with. Plus room to advance if you like to work a lot and are willing to commute or move to work at different stores.

Cons

Lots of hours. Rotating schedule means working every other weekend nights and mornings. Average team member doesn't get paid a lot, so its hard to attract and keep good employees.

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.
