Pros

Fast growing company with long awaited upgrades to the company's internal structure coming soon. recognized when you get good sales. Very Flexible with scheduling. Environment never really gets boring. Great Co-Workers.

Cons

Unfair pay structure. District Manager determines your staring pay when getting hired. High turn over rate. When it comes to hours there is some sort of favoring , Even if you get high sales and work harder it seems that lazier people get more hours than you. Only benefits is 20% off and a .20 cent raise every 6 months.

Pros

- Enjoyed working with teens/young adults and building them up into the workforce/ teaching them responsibilities -Policies were awesome, but not always backed by upper management - Always pushing you to be better

Cons

- Upper management did not have equal expectations of stores/ lacked clear communication -PAY, they will pay someone who is hired external far more then they ever will an internal. Doesn’t matter how long you’re there. I was trained from a seasonal, all the way up and made far less than newer peers. They do not see as much value in internals which is so unfortunate for them. Did my 8 years and have a lot of resentment over this.
