Pros

Freedom in merchandising decisions. Real emphasis on associate recognition. Ability to take care of the customer without much restrictions. Great vacation time for management.

Cons

Work load is sometimes unbearable, not realistic. Work life balance is mediocre at best, depends on SM/DM. Hourly pay for full time supervisors is a joke. Payroll is basically non existent. CEO makes mostly announced visits so stores have time to prepare which is unrealistic view of what the customer sees .
