Pros

I was allowed to choose some of my own suppliers and find better deals from reputable sources.

Cons

Management was way to hands-on, if I increase a store's profits by 50% over my first 4 months in being there they should not be down my throat about petty day-to-day issues. Involving other stores who "need" me to do more for them, even though they had their own GM at those locations.
