Pros

They allow you to request time off !! As any job would !!! And accepted when you have an emergency and can't make it , but must show excuse !!

Cons

They have a Moto, they take care of their employees they DONT ! THEY pick and choose to their liking !! If you miss work and have a legit excuse at HAND they retaliate with no HOURS !! YOU go from 30/35 to 12/15 which ain't even worth the DRIVE no matter how close or far you LIVE ! BETTER off working ELSEWHERE

Pros

Good compensation including not just standard pay, but also end of year bonus 80 hours for hourly associates, 8% of your annual earnings granted to you in free company stock thru which quarterly dividends are paid, ok 401k, and gift card and other associate coupons. Good stability and growth. Good company culture.

Cons

Can be slow and resistant to change. Uses some antiquated systems and software that should have been replaced years ago. Does some things that don't make sense. Some managers can be good, while others not very good. Although these cons may be true for a lot of companies. All roads eventually lead to Lakeland where they are headquartered. Geography can be a big one if you are not a Florida native. If you don't want to live in Florida for some legitimate reasons, there can be limited job options in other states, especially if you aren't interested in retail or warehouse jobs. Standard retail negatives about not having a lot of holidays off.
