Pros

Discount Flexible hours stack coupons employee shop days

Cons

The management is very poor. I knew how to do more than all the managers there. The store manager is all about politics and promotes people who are way under qualified just because theyre all buddy buddy with them. The store manager knows how to do the registers and thats about it.

Pros

Good benefits, salary, and work life balance. $19B company will a solid root in Milwaukee market who cares about their employee, customers, and the environment

Cons

Rapid growth over the last decade lends towards inefficient systems that try to keep pace with more mature companies. Typical political management decisions exist throughout the Corporate office
