Pros

Training, relocation benefits, networking, people, community events, 401k match, benefits.

Cons

Micromanagement, disconnected district management, unrealistic expectations, pointless competitions, their way or the highway, care more about shareholders than their people, awful communication, toxic work environments (depending on location ), poor work / life balance depending on position (managers work 48 hours per week, no OT, pretty archaic), lackluster HR department.

Pros

Leadership training, flexible schedule if your store has the necessary staffing, 401k match

Cons

If you don't have staffing then you are required to work weekends consistently, Sales calls requirements keep getting higher and higher, incompetent corporate leadership. Pay is based on 44 hours worked weekly for assistants(48 for Store managers; leaves room for less work/life balance
