Pros
This company was stable with decent pay as you built your pawn book. There used to be lots of opportunities to work overtime. They continue to ask a minimum amount per hours per week but are willing to adjust your schedule for something important. The environment varies in each store and depends heavily on the store manager.
Cons
Recent changes have taken place in regards to top management. The greatest change being the CEO. Under the old CEO employees were well compensated and treated with dignity. The new CEO is a cheap accountant who is only looking out for shareholders of the company and company's stock prices. This new CEO treats employees like cattle and implements budgets impossible to reach to avoid paying commission. He has gone as far as planning to pay less commission openly without disgrace. The company seems to be growing in the stock market because of the savings in unpaid commission and not in revenue as the the CEO implies. One of his tricks includes changing management pay system, taking away yearly contests such as the trip to Vegas, transferring employees with high pawn books to other stores to avoid paying them commission for continued interest profits, and taking away yearly awards dinner events for top performers. Also yearly hourly raises used to be $1, but now it's a joking 5 to 50 cents tops.
