Pros

Good communication between from top down of upper level management to lower level employees. Servant Leadership is promoted and achieved.

Cons

The downside is the difference between corporate and franchised locations. Also the turnover for certain positions can be high but that is not unusual for the industry.

Pros

The Store Manager training program is very informative. The company pays for all your expenses when attending one of their training campuses (hotel, gas, mileage, food) as well as your regular salary! 7-Eleven employees and management are very personable.

Cons

The training program can be extreme. The trainer spends a day teaching you how to clean a toilet and mop a floor like you've never done it before.They're are lots of different levels of management and someone from each level is likely to tell you a different way to do the same thing.
