Pros

The pay is great. Benefits are good. Fairly straightforward job responsibilities. Fast paced and with the right staff can be a great work environment.

Cons

This company has very little concern for a work life balance. They operate on minimal staff so they can save money even when it doesn't meet the needs of the business or customer focus. It all falls on the SM. Stay longer, come in extra days. They don't care.

Pros

Pay for entry level position right out of college isn't bad. Decent health benefits, and company car with gas card.

Cons

There is no work life balance for store managers or district managers. They claim you should only work around 50 hours a week which is laughable. You will work between 80 to 100 hours a week unless everything in your store runs perfectly without any hiccups.

Pros

Great place to work, Great Pay, work/life balance is improving, 401k is great. Insurance is excellent. Great store managers make stores run smoothly. Having a team that bonds well keeps schedules fair and work balanced.

Cons

Needs to improve on minimal opportunities for career advancement. Not enough input on store level when hiring for the team. Unrealistic productivity guidelines for lower volume stores vs higher volume stores.
