      Pros

      Associates make at most $13 an hour. CEMs won't get more than $20. If you have coworkers who you get along with well, it'll make the job a bit better. But you won't have time to actually talk and get to know each other. If you love mindless work with minimal effort, I recommend applying for a sales associate position. Great career opportunities bc so many people are leaving and then others are being promoted as their replacements.

      Cons

      Be wary - it's a "we're a family" company. That about says it all. Very minimal pay for: - No training whatsoever - Inconsistent scheduling - Understaffed locations - Restrictive corporate policies (don't worry, my general manager didn't follow any of them) - Predatory general managers - They make you sign paperwork that says you can't share salary information with coworkers, which is *illegal* - 5B is not above federal law. No transparency when it comes to salaries across the board. But associates won't make more than $13/hr and CEMs/MM no more than $20/hr. Hope this helps people who are looking to make a liveable wage!
