Pros

Great health care plan for full time employees!

Cons

The company posted about how the company cares about mental health on linkedin but in reality, it doesn't. I have never once been asked about my mental health. The current DM expects the store managers to work 6-7 days a week (not paid overtime) and work an unhealthy amount of overtime instead of increasing their budget to hire more people throughout the year. One of their sayings is hold the penny hostage for theft prevention which is ironic since they hold the penny hostage for their own employees too and pay the bare minimum, overwork employees, and then wonder why everyone leaves.

Pros

Great learning experience, small store so you wont feel isolated, doesn't get crazy busy during Black Friday like many retail stores.

Cons

Below average pay for management, your experience heavily depends on the store you work for, not enough hours for many associates and support leads.
