Pros

Regular pay raises and bonuses. Opportunity to explore different areas of the company

Cons

Few paid holidays (Memorial Day is not a paid holiday) and only 5 sick days, use it or lose it vacation and sick time. Atmosphere focused on the company profits. They use the “partner” designation to guilt you into working overtime for free as a salary employee. Employees reminded me of Stepford Wives. Encourage staff to promote the company on their own time. EX MLK parade. MLK is not a paid holiday so if you want the “opportunity” to promote the company you have to use vacation time. If you need more sick days you go on unpaid FMLA regardless of how long you were with the company. Poor work/life balance.

Pros

Pay and benefits, teammates, community support, challenging work. Great growth opportunities if you are not part of the management wheel.

Cons

Spineless leadership, toxic culture perpetuated from the top, lack of risk taking and air cover for lessons learned, Mgmt does get fired often with little notice or severance, but Sr Leadership stays in tact. Never trust HR. Management spends most of their time arguing or defending their strategies versus getting work done. Constant fear of Amazon perpetuating from the top of the company.

Pros

Partners store wise are great to work with. Pay is undeniably terrible. Not too many pros. Sorry about my opinion. But after 10 plus years, I chose here to voice.

Cons

Do not expect help from RMs, verbal abuse, a lot of j friendly top "leaders", and never work for people named Rocco!!
