Pros

There's the potential to learn a lot and work on many different tasks/projects. The brand is great and it's a growing company.

Cons

It all really depends on what location you're working at but for the most part employees drop like flies because management does not take responsibility and fix major personnel or operational issues. As a full-time employee that was recruited and relocated, I had expected that we (my whole group of UMCs in about 10 locations) would be properly trained. When issues were brought up from multiple people asking for help nothing was done about them. A lot of time is wasted by associates, supervisors and UMCs because managers lack communication skills. I would guess that at least 50% of my store's employees planned on leaving once they accepted a job offer at another location. My advice to applicants is to meet the people you'd be working with first to see if that particular location has a positive culture.

Pros

You learn a lot of the business; scheduling and payroll, labor management, how to create a daily workflow to accomplish business objectives. You're provided with detailed insights into a store's operations- it's P&L statement, total inventory and how convert key data into actionable plans. Simply put, you are challenged and will learn a lot.

Cons

Company and store experience varies greatly by store location. Unfortunately, management favoritism results in certain individuals getting better treatment and greater access to professional opportunities. Additionally, Company HR is very tepid when addressing store issues pertaining to behaviors exhibited by store management towards associates. Scheduling can be very inflexible and unaccommodating.
