Pros

I love the regulars and the relationships I've been able to build over the past three years. The training is actually pretty on par with the basics I learned at school, it's just a matter of the manager ensuring their employees follow it and also up to the employees to learn it. Really flexible. Free products most months. Even part time people can get vacation time.

Cons

Manager's never really have a sense of direction, corporate is a mess. One minute you'll set a sale and later that day they'll cancel it. Warehouse is also a mess, a lot of getting what you don't need vs, What you've been out of for weeks and customers are growing frustrated. Constantly taking away hours. Your job is dangled over your head at times because they assume you don't want to do your job as opposed to someone just not being easy to build a sale with. Anything tech like systems, ipads, internet, apps, nothing works right. All around pretty shady.

Pros

My store manager and team were wonderful! If you make the right moves you can move up the ladder reasonably quickly,

Cons

You can move up the ladder quickly because turnover is so high. Management will lie to you and tell you whatever you want to hear to keep you from leaving. Your experience is entirely dependent on who your store manager is and if they are willing to advocate for you. District management does not care about employees.
