Pros

Recognized company name and low prices on lower quality goods

Cons

Very inflexible personnel policies. Management uses extreme punishment measures (e.g. 3 day layoff/no pay) for minor infringements . If late 3 times by more than 5 minutes in 90 day rolling period, you get fired--regardless of length of service or reason. Very low moral among hourly staff.

Cons

Employees are treated as expendable because there is always a stack of applications on the human resource desk.
