Pros

They offer great compensation and benefits to their fulltime employees.

Cons

The structure or chain of command in the store was not exactly the best, because it was so small there was no one really to delegate tasks to.

Pros

Benefits and retirement plans are great. I advanced very quickly but I was well-liked, district management holds a lot of power over whether or not you go anywhere so whether you like the District Manager or District Sales Manager or not, you should at least be professional or you will stay an assistant manager forever.

Cons

Huge conglomerate. So many moving wheels at the highest level that senior managers are pretty out of touch. They tend to paint with too broad of a brush, especially on economic situations. You will be praised for doing well but it will be forgotten very quickly. It is an old boys club, promotions and advancement come to those who play the game.
