      Pros

      Good while in school. Flexible hours. Fast paced and is better with friends, makes time go by faster. Free food lol.

      Cons

      Bad pay. Called in to work on off days quite often. Poor management when it comes to speed and cleaning. Closing and opening the store is the most work by far!

      Very political. Not ideal for longterm career growth. Great if you want to punch in punch out. And coast to retirement.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good perks on-site: gym, massage, haircut, car wash service (mon & wed) day-care, snacks Okay benefits: 3 weeks vacation for new hires (4 weeks @ 10 years), matching 401k up to 6% (100% vested) Some great people to work with. Laid back environment. (Jeans ok all week long) Good facilities, great location next to Spectrum. Taste panel (help shape products that are or will be launched) Summer - Holiday hours (45 mins added to Mon - Thurs., half day Fridays)

      Cons

      Okay to below average pay. Very, very political! Odd review process: all managers review you. If anyone doesn't like you they can shoot down your positive review. Whole company gets review at same time, but they only have a limited number of slots available for above target and/or promotions. But they swear you aren't competing against each other. Lots of managers very few leaders. Lots of "yes men" Poor direction, focus, and career development. Company is all about marketing. So spin is big, process is not. Thus everything is it's own special one off. You will be constantly solving the same problems over and over again. Departments are very siloed. Poor transparency, information is a weapon, politics rule.
