Pros

Great opportunities for advancement from within. Individual store atmosphere builds great teamwork building skills. Income is very competitive.

Cons

Micromanagement from corporate level. Everyone is replaceable has become a theme. Fear is the greatest form of motivation used from senior supervisors. No flexibility in scheduling or juggling of family life.

Pros

The pay for the work that was required is quite high compared to similar companies. The extra $2.50 per hour on weekends is good incentive for weekend workers.

Cons

The only downfall was lack of training as far as merchandise goes. As a member of the front end team, I was very unprepared to answer questions regarding the location of products throughout the store.

Pros

Flexible hours and can transfer to different places if necessary.

Cons

Low pay in comparison to other companies. Management give little respect to stockers and other employees. Very little positive encouragement. Work short often because management is always trying to save big money and there is a large turnover rate because of lower pay in comparison to other companies. Poor insurance and benefits.
