Pros

Great place to work, they value their managers and associates. As a former RSM I was given the opportunities, resources, and support to run the sales floor as if it was my own. While it’s still retail, this company is great company to work for. Not to mention the pay wasn’t to shabby.

Cons

There is no location in central Florida
