Pros

Weekend,Holiday,IPS. Went through the Manager Trainee program. Was told I would get 5 days paid vacation upon completion, then they changed the policy 3/4 the way through that only DEGREED MT's get the vacation day. Store management did not even try to question executives as to why I didn't get the day.

Cons

Must work 1yr before you can get vacation(manager or not). Go above and beyond then that's all they expect from you. Treat you like crap and store management doesn't take ownership of decisions they forced you into.

Pros

Offers higher wages than most jobs in this industry with a start of 8.80 with additional 2.50/ hr on weekends. Flexible scheduling for students and part time workers. They offer the ability for fast track promotion to management with a college degree if interested and willing to relocate in certain situations. Growth company with many opportunities, again if willing to relocate.

Cons

1/2 hr lunch breaks. outdated equipment minimal employee benefits iffy management in some departments
