Pros

Many attainable bonuses, pay based on experience, growth within the company is extremely available, but only if you are willing to relocate. Excellent leadership experience. Full timers get every other weekend off. Paid holidays.

Cons

As a manager, you are required to work some closing shifts, followed by an opening shift the next day. With the store closing at 10pm and opening at 630am, you will have very little sleep one or two days of the week. Have to work with the company for three years before getting 10 vacation days.

Pros

Great advancement if the person wants to relocate. Promotes within so really easy to climb the ladder. Great pay for managers in the organization. Management based company. If you move you can make decent money.

Cons

The company is not perfect. A little disconnect from corporate to stores. A lot of your enjoyment depends on who the store managers are.

Pros

Better pay than most entry level jobs. Profit sharing is a big plus.

Cons

Division of labor is pretty bad. Half the store basically does nothing while the other half is worked to the bone
