Good career path, but very hard and soul-sucking work.
Pros
Opportunities for promotions (lots of different positions to grow in/career path). Great folks to work with (store team members). Generous bonuses for Store Managers.
Cons
Everything, every single aspect of this job comes down to quotas and efficiencies. It's a very physically and emotionally demanding job. The regional directors are so disconnected and yet always ask for more or will visit your store once a year and have the most unrealistic feedback for you (many times leaving the district managers confused as well). As a manager, your job is to watch every movement of your employees to make sure you meet labor efficiencies. Labor efficiencies and KPI's are very normal for all business, but Savers is unrealistic about efficiencies. It is also a very dirty and unsafe work environment, especially if you work in CDC (donation center) or production. You very often (including managers) have to work with large trash (compactors, large dumpsters, large metal containers) and stack donation bags and boxes into a large trailer. It is a very hard job.
