Pros

They pay you to do a job so you get a paycheck- Most store employees are good people and try hard

Cons

They expect WAAAAAY too much from all employees, They set unrealistic and unachievable goals for all store employees and then come down hard when they arent met. They create a negative and horrible culture (tho most store associates are good people) the corporate and upper management only seem to care about themselves. WENT DOWNHILL WHEN HACKETT LEFT AND FROM WHAT I HEAR HAS ONLY GOTTEN WORSE x1000 You have to be in the "Good Ole Boys Club" to get ahead and if they don't like you or your not part of that club, they will make your life miserable.

Pros

You get to meet all sorts of people of all levels & all sorts of cultures, so good platform of making good connections & built your good network , if you have people's skills

Cons

Despite being amongst top performers the rewards I (cashier/associate) earn , i do not get any appraisal, but on my/our reward points Management/managers get hefty bonuses & don't even give us 40hrs , not even yearly appraisal, not even $3cupon, which are distributed amongst favourite.. too much of group & favorites politics . Learn boot licking & you will be considered over top performers
