Pros

Depending on the personality of your immediate supervisor; it can be a great place to work.

Cons

The higher you move up in the company the more political it gets. If you don't brown nose, then you will be stuck in the same position..

Pros

The best part of working for this company is being off on Sunday.

Cons

I feel as if you always have a project to do that's not in your job description. If you don't use Pto you cannot have a Saturday off. Just a lot of work for little to no money.

Pros

Freedom to work without someone always looking over your shoulder. My property was doing well financially and that gave me freedom to do things my way. So long as numbers were riding I felt respected and cared about. The customers are from all walks of life and you meet new people every day. Once I got a chance to speak with my DVP, he turned out to be one of the best and most motivational bosses I've had. My DM didn't like me talking to his boss though.

Cons

Sometimes they would actually search just to find anything out of place to complain about. A little oil and dirt in the tracks of the elevator done should be okay when the property is otherwise perfect. Never made a big deal about all I did right, but wouldn't let anything go that wasn't. Sometimes hard to communicate effectively with people above the DM. Any communication with upper management from a store manager seemed frowned upon. Too many politics and backstabbing managers who will do unethical things to make you look inferior to them or to get your property. Slow discipline by corporate lets the damage her too bad before removing a bad employee.
