Pros

its a paycheck each week nothing more and nothing less

Cons

cooperate could care less,they work you like a dog and appreciate nothing. They allow rules to be repeatly broken. Favortism is unbelievable its not how hard you work or how long you been there its who you know. The Dms are terrible and turns a blind eye to so much its not even funny. I would not be working here if I had any other job.

Pros

The company is about the same as all chain stores. They do give you the benefits-medical, dental, vision etc.

Cons

Senior management does not show the proper respect to mid-level management. Above average and excellent work are not rewarded, nor is praise given when deserved. They do show the normal attitude of a chain store, more given by you only requires you to give more.
