      Pros

      Pay is competitive, I earn bonuses based on how profitable the store is run is

      Cons

      Work Life Balance, if you have a family and want to spend all the time with them this is not the job for you. You are in the store most of the day light hours and schedule is not very flexible for family events so you can go.
