Pros

If you have a good core of staff, it does make it better to work there. Advancement is okay... Hours of operation isn't too bad.

Cons

Can't hire good staff because of their starting wages and they don't let you wiggle to much with the wages. Micro-managed even at a store manager level, talk about having their thumb on you. In your review they talk about thinking outside of the box; how can you... Email email email email, if your not in front of your computer at least 2 or 3 time an hour you will be overwhelmed with email. They change their mind about things like a person changes clothes... No 401k match, salary freeze, Bonus? What is that???

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.
