Pros

great store to work in. most of the employees that worked for me did their job and were happy about it. its a very inviting place to shop

Cons

very poor compensation for the amount of work that is required by management (myself). HR does not handle employee issues well at all. things get brushed under the rug and nothing comes of a complaint. no one is held accountable. the worst part is that when someone like myself works his butt off, doing 90 hours weeks from time to time and being a go-to guy for out district manager in the busiest district in the country (long island) i get no praise or promotion. they promote the wrong people and it has proven time and time again to lead to failure. they wind up getting fired and the good ones like myself who tried to hold out just quit.
