Pros

Fast paced work environment. Very close knit team atmosphere. Allowed freedom to work independently with minimal supervision. Guidance and resources always readily available

Cons

Very much on the "buddy system" for promotions within the company. Very little room to move up unless you have someone above clearing a path for you. Pending federal investigation has been looming over this company for years

Pros

The best thing part of this job is that I no longer work there!

Cons

This company is so micro-managed, there is no need for intelligence, which is obvious in the type of manager;s they hire-- Lazy, incompetent, and no sense of responsibility. Driver's with legitimate complaints are treated like trash, so you can imagine how they treat their employees.They are in trouble for not paying out rebates to trucking companies, but to my knowledge no one has taken them to task for forcing employees to work off the clock or erasing hours from employee's legitimate payroll in order to avoid paying overtime. I'm hoping that will happen in the near future. Stores are impossible to keep clean because they don't provide adequate staff. (One cashier and a manager that sits on their behind in the office for each of three shifts with up to 800 customers a day just doesn't cut it.) If your goal in life is to be forced to work like a plow mule, this is the job for you!

Pros

compensation was decent. not very much positive to say...

Cons

lofty expectations of perfection while playing with restrictive budgets. In this company what you know doesn't matter near as much as who you know. This company lives a double standard every day. Region managers are very much a "do as I say not as I do".
