Pros

It pays the bills. Some people are good to work with.

Cons

People are reluctant to change. Inefficiencies all over the place with micro-manged supervisors. People with low EQ are in key positions. Limited career path with senior management position being recruited from outside instead of developing people within the company. Too political within the senior management team. Instead of working together, people looks after their own while promoting inefficiencies.

Pros

There are no pros to working for this company.

Cons

Low pay, grueling hours, unsafe and toxic work environment. The company does not offer opportunities for its sore employees to advance to the corporate sector; especially if you have a college degree. As a store employee neither you, your expertise and skill set, nor your ideas on how to improve workflow and company culture matter.
