Pros

I love working here because there is an actual sense of ownership with the company. I feel that I am actually recognized by the "big wigs" by my first name rather than "just another employee". Management works with my schedule the best they can and gives raises based on hours worked, with plenty of advancement opportunities.

Cons

Sometimes you will run into a store manager that does things completely different then what you are used to. They expect you to know how they like things, and rather than coaching you to tell you what you NEED to do, they just keep pointing out the bad things, not really praising. But like I said, this is only some store managers

Pros

Great coworkers and managers. The products are great and I loved that I was able to offer great customer service. Moving up and around in the company is easy, positions are always opening up because the company continues to expand. They also have an employee share program

Cons

The hours can be sketchy, depending on the department you're in. Some weeks can be higher than others. The workload is also heavy and the expectations are high but manageable.
