It was ok in the beginning but once I got a new District Manager it went down hill.

Pros

Meeting new people, pay was ok but bonus program was a joke, working with good people in store.

Cons

You have no personal life because your always being pushed to meet unattainable goals, lack of support from upper management, no room to advance after becoming GM, my district manager was always expecting me to do his job going out to the other stores to help with training and stuff, lack of hours to do job properly, long hours and working almost every weekend, barely ever got to use my vacation time and lied to when they let me go.

It really depends on who is the general manager. Visit the store beforehand and see how it's run.

Shady management, they don't really, truly invest in you as a person, and they will see you as just a body, high turnover rate, people ALWAYS call in sick
