Pros

Bonuses, good pay, supervisor is not harassing you to reach metrics and goals, the colleagues are reachable and very helpful

Cons

No steady schedule, 12 hour shifts by yourself standing up all day with a 30 minute 'break' that you almost can never take, schedule is not posted with anticipation or they can change it last minute making it hard to make personal plans or appointments...sometimes I get 5 shifts straight with just one day to rest....the company and the colleagues are great but as a floater you have no work-life balance.

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.
