Pros

If you are just getting into a management career it is a great place to start. Significant investment in training.

Cons

Long hours. No consideration for work/life balance. Processes and procedures are administratively burdensome. Contact between operations and corporate is not encouraged and is limited. Very controlled environment. Little to no autonomy in purchasing. Heavy administrative requirements at all levels. Benefit options are numerous, however the cost involved is higher than I would expect from a company of this size.
