Pros

Great benefits and lots of opportunity for advancement.

Cons

I work at Shared Accounting, where I believe the pay scale isn't necessarily reflective of the education and abilities of their employees. Though not horrible, I believe there's room for improvement.

Pros

It looks great on a resume to work at such a well known fortune 500 company and the discounts you can get from discontinued items from vendors are great.

Cons

There were no opportunities for growth in such a time of recession. Any jobs that may have been available were outsourced to temp agencies instead of hiring within the company. Even though the company wasted time training new people with no knowledge of the company, it saved them money in the long run beside they can pay temps the starting salary and no health care. I think that one of a company's first priority should have been to save a few people from being laid off.

Pros

Can't think of any reasons to push someone to work from them. I take that back, it does give you a good work ethic coming out of college. You will work 60+ hours a week.

Cons

Hours, Pay, Promotion Opportunities. These are just a few major problems with them. The typical store managers are just guys that did really well in sales. They have no management background or leadership qualities.
