Pros

Most co workers are great people. Management, not so much.

Cons

Communication, communication, communication!!! Low pay and if they can get by without giving you a break, they will. Expect miracles when they don't provide enough people to do the work. The only way to move up with this company is to have a brown nose and agree with everything that the "Boss" says. The upper people in this company need to wake up and stop announcing their visits. Come in during regular business hours and see for yourselves what your employees have to deal with on a daily basis. Then you would see that the top levels of management on the local level spend most of their time in the office and so are not even aware of what is happening out on the floor of the store. It seems all they are concerned about is keeping the overhead (payroll) low so that their end of year bonuses are bigger. Try spreading the wealth and give ALL employees an end of year bonus. You might attract better and more loyal employees if working conditions were better and you were up to snuff on the hourly wage for your employees.
