Pros

Small store sizes and strong store-to-store networking provides a feeling of community within the area.

Cons

Changing to a corporate mentality has made this company unpleasant to work for. Upper management is inconsiderate of their subordinate's lives outside of the office and express that their jobs should be the number one priority in their life. HR is paranoid of everything and take every situation to an extreme level of caution, to the point of being detrimental to the work environment.

Pros

While Uncle Bob's is a mid-size company that has set policies for all of it's stores, they do allow the managers the freedom to make decisions regarding both customer experiences and property management.

Cons

Very little potential for growth within the company. You are basically stuck at your position unless someone ahead of you retires. There are steps required to be promoted within the company.
