Pros

No education is needed. You can move up from an assistant manager to managers anywhere fro 1-3 years depending on the relationship with your manager and wheter your manager is highly regarded by your district manager. Progression as a manager can be great if other managers quit are let go you can get promoted quit easily. Suppy and Demand basically.

Cons

As a manager there are times you can work anywhere up to 70hrs. Your are required to only work 35 hrs but communication is sent out to work 45 to 52 hours on a weekly basis. It is not a stable company to start and keep a career if you have a family. If upper management is not fond of you they will try their best to make you in violation of the most minute policy to discontinue your career.

Pros

New CEO seems focussed on giving the company a well needed "facelift!" Very focussed on strategic planning and improving the environment overall. Generous discount Financially stable

Cons

Very "flat" organization with a lot of tenure...that is people have been there 30-40 years and aren't leaving and there are only 3 levels of management and no levels in job titles i.e. Senior Developer or Developer I, II, III. No promotions are ever given because no one ever leaves the managment jobs. As a result most employees lack any drive because they know there is no hope for advancement or recognition. Change adverse organization, old technology, minimal formal processes, very reliant on vendors, minimal to no innovation-logos, stores and websites need facelifts. Marketing across stores should be a focus. But again, change is in the air!
