Pros

Pay not bad but for the abuce you take its not worth it.

Cons

Treat the men like dogs and give credit to the people who don't know their jobs at all. The Oakland GM needs to go because he has his son working for him. NOT a good idea. HR covers it up!!

Let's work the managers to death...

Store manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits package and reasonably priced for the employees

Cons

The required Sunday -Thursday or Tuesday - Saturday schedule for the managers is not reasonable. The upper management will Not allow the managers to take days off to be with their family as needed, however the upper management only works Mon-Fri... The Requirement for store managers to work Every Holiday is not reasonable, especially when the upper management is at home with their family on the Holiday. The total lack of support from upper management is unbelievable. They do however enjoy enforcing the "Pick & Punish" method of management. The number of Store Managers that have left the company in the past 6 months should be a "wake up call" to the Stockholders that this company is falling fast.
