Pros

Good people. I absolutely love the people I work with. The stores bond up and work together due to lack of support from the higher ups.

Cons

total lack of actual training. Just regurgitation of corporate buzz words and wooden sales methods. Burger flipper money. 60 hour work weeks. The HLEs are treated like the red headed step child of the company and often cut off from the airport when they need vehicles to fill reservations.

Pros

Company car (at Branch Manager Level and above), You spend a lot of time moving around, everyday is different. If you're a good sales person you can make decent bonus money. Due to high turnover if you stick it out you can advance quickly.

Cons

Horrible leadership, unethical business practices. Horrible starting pay. Too focused on sales and making $ as a company and not focused on their customers and employees. Overworked, understaffed. Upper management doesn't care about the people on the front line. They will quickly complain if sales are down but when things are great you never get any positive feedback.

Pros

Benefits....maybe, other than that, you really need to consider if it's worth the aggravation. See cons.

Cons

Senior management team out of touch. Misleading and bullying management style permeates the organization. Ideas and input are shunned, and ridiculed. Best talent is leaving in droves. Constantly in crisis mode. Top heavy organization, way too many projects, committees, audits, calls. Middle and top management extremely heavy, massive reductions needed. Deception and dishonesty rampant, 3 CFOs in 1 year says a lot to this point. Now a financial crisis and failure to report Q1 results. Not good. Narcissistic top leadership destroying once good company. Turnover is incredible. Constant layoffs, but its always the little guy in field.
