Business Outlook

Pros

Good co-workers, good customers, great place to learn new things, you can make mistakes with minor disciplinary consequences, if you ask for a day off it is most probable you get it. Raises came often and with good amounts.

Cons

Corporate office is not the best, i called several times for a pay stub i seemed to misplace and i needed as soon as possible and i did not receive a response. General Manager was not the best, mostly concerned on the amount of money store could make.
