Pros

Pay/Benefits, given high level of responsibility, the company follows through on what it says it will do, great developmental opportunities, people focused. You rarely will find bad people in leadership positions. You will be pushed by your leaders but will have respect for them.

Cons

It's very hard work, expectations are high and workloads can be unreasonable. However, if you stick to it you will get to a good place.

Pros

The pay and monthly bonus is great. Benefits are second to none.

Cons

Be ready to give up your life. Staffing was a constant issue because they consider full time 25 hours or more, and the DM's want their huge productivity at any cost. 'Push your people to do more' is their motto. Aldi may pay more but when my employees were only given 28 hrs they quit. The DM's don't care about anything except getting their big numbers. I worked on days off, 60-90 hrs per week. No appreciation, even after several years with the company. Not worth the personal sacrifice. If you want work/life balance DO NOT work here.

Pros

Vacation,personal days and sick days. Nothing else positive to say. Pay was not bad.

Cons

Unrealistic productivity expectations while at the same time saying customer service was important actually no time was permitted to interact with customers and keep the ring speed etc at max proficiency. Backstabbing faced district and ops managers.
