Pros

Great products in a fast growing company so if you're looking to move up in management, you possibly could if your DM likes you.

Cons

Home office doesn't have a clue about really goes on in the stores. They are always coming up with "improvements" that do nothing but waste time and don't contribute to the effective running of the business or the bottom line. Too many senseless moves and not enough time or staff to do them. No feedback for a job well done, just criticism of how it could have been done better. Would not recommend it for a full time hourly job. Those people work way too hard for the little money they make.

Pros

it is a job if you desperately need one

Cons

management does not keep promises (e.g. I was promised $2 higher pay upon accepting the position and later was told it wasn't feasible anymore once starting. I was also promised a specific day off then last minute had it revoked because they decided to make it a mandatory day). management does not listen to or care about its employees, very unprofessional. store managers don't want to do anything to help, they just sit in the office. management let other employees slack off and do nothing and expected others to compensate for their lack of effort general manager was horribly rude and misogynistic. he threw a box at someone while visiting.
