Pros

great benefits, partners are usually fun, customers are usually awesome. it's not a hard job to learn--anyone can do it, really

Cons

management is clicky, partners are not treated equally. there is a recognition program/process in place but is not used. accountability is lacking at management level. management takes credit for partners hard work without giving due recognition.

Pros

work/life balance, company goal/values, and benefits package is second to none.

Cons

More relationship than results oriented, political base for advancement. Not the best schedule, even for retail having to work at least some of every weekend. Difficult to get time off, with pressure if it's "really" necessary.
