Pros

My store manager (before I was promoted to manager) was incredible. Best manager I've had at any job. But he was also driven out by the company's choices. As a manager you can earn bonuses based on the store's performance.

Cons

Long hours, low pay, and very strict about how you work. I spent two years with this company. Started as a tech and worked my way up to Store Manager. There is opportunity to move up, but switching from Assistant Manager to Store Manager was a massive pay cut due to it being a salaried position, but still working 60+ hour weeks. I ended up leaving because they had all the store managers in the area work six days a week as a punishment for not meeting goals. As a tech, expect to be watched by your area manager at all time through cameras and micromanaged.
