Pros

Management is great at training employees. Plenty of room for advancement and growth as stores are always opening. Don't micromanage but does make sure you are comfortable and can handle the job.

Cons

District manager was very harsh and critical. Broke laws repeatedly and took anger out on manager when assistant manager wouldn't bad mouth manager. I, the assistant manager/keyholder, listened to both district manager and manager have screaming matches in front of customers.

Business Outlook

Pros

Very flexible schedule, very easy job

Cons

Very boring, Company is very cheap, not willing to give out raises often, store theft is very bad, The president of the company is very old fashioned and likes to use scare tactics on employees when inventory is short, sending a retired police officer to harass employees, threats on job security and threats of possible jail-time. All scare tactics are complete lies and anyone with common sense can see through the act. I have felt personally harassed by this process and I have no respect for this company.
