Pros

* Great track record of operational success * Focus on hourly "partners" from management * Culture

Cons

* Culture (There are great upsides, but also leave a lot of room for abuse) * No innovation or creativity allowed at local levels "Here's the playbook, now run it" * Safety initiatives will drive managers away because they have created a "Zero Defect" environment * GMs encouraged to do things that don't impact the top or bottom line, but look good in the peer group and win kudos from RBDs (Regional Business Directors)

Pros

Encourages a good work ethic Reasonable base-pay compensation Encourages reserve-component duty

Cons

Corporate culture is oppressive (Drink the kool-aid!) A lot of flavor-of-the-week initiatives/ideas (today the focus of our business is etc.) Still waiting for payment of performance based bonus (60 plus days after end of fiscal year, and don't get me started on the fact I haven't even seen a quarterly one since I've been there!)
