Pros

Being able to get time off when needed.

Cons

Advertisement stated that I would be working 40 hours a week - in reality it was 35 hours a week. I only worked for the company for 2 months but it became very clear that there was a great deal of disrespect amongst the employees. District meetings were thick with tension and the gossip that occurred on a daily basis was amazing. My property manager would actually have 2 phones on speaker (2 different stores) so they could sit and gossip. There truly is no "team" within this company. It is all about the money and no concern for the employees. Throwing one another "under the bus" seems to be a very active sport at this company. Also the inability to take responsiblity for one's behavior is very prevelant. There is nowhere to eat lunch - maybe a broom closet with a microwave if you are lucky. Other than that, one must eat in his/her vehicle or go to a restaurant. During the summer months, the air conditioner stopped working - the district manager decided not to fix it because of cost and that he considered it the employees' fault that it was not working. at times the office was close to 90 degrees!!

Great job to improve your management and communication skills with customers, employees, and management. Heavy interaction with customers as well as competitors.

Unless you live in area of corporate office, no room for advancement unless District Manager leaves.

Pros

Great pay for tenured employees, solid corporate benefits and the ability to build a great team.

Cons

Long work hours, always on call, bottom line more important than employee welfare. Company always looking for ways to take away things from the employees.
