Good place to learn retail management

Pros

Decent hours, make your own schedule (as the manager), fun customers and team members to work with. Make your monthly sales, you get a small sales bonus to share with the entire team. As the Store Manger, if you make profit plan, you get a substantial bonus, and you add to it by helping your district beat plan and for every dollar you go over plan.

Cons

HARD on managers. My experience showed Tractor Supply has different standards for different managers. What was good for one manager was not good for another; this was across several states and multiple district managers. Mandated to close 2 nights a week, work every weekend, hard to get time off for family vacations. Things that were supposed to happen (one weekend off a month, vacation scheduling, etc) as set forth by the company did not make it to the local level. Very small percent of payroll, we averaged 4% of gross sales and had to cut back on that even when sales were above plan. As the company has grown, it has left behind its best workers. You are now just a number to a large corporation. The CEO used to know everyone by first name, but Jim Wright does not run that style of upper level management.

Pros

The people who work at TSC are fantastic. You want to go to work for the laughter. All have great attitudes. It is a wonderful place to work.

Cons

The discount is not great at 15% and the pay is minimum.

Pros

I enjoy many of the customers that come in the door. I can relate to them, we chat about what is going on in their lives, I get and give advice often. My dealings with the customers have both enlightened and educated me.

Cons

Management at the store level is out of touch. When a position opened up for a team leader we had 4 people currently working there who were offered the position but turned it down for one reason. Every single associate that works at our store is sick of having to take the flack for our management. The team leader who is there currently is overworked simply because management does not know how to help or satisfy customers. To the point where during summer months many of our biggest spenders will walk in the door, ask what managers are in that day and turn back around and walk out the door if either the head manager or assistant manager is even in the store.
