Pros

Growing company with many opportunities to advance. Fast pace environment, never a dull moment in a work day. Great stepping stone to another career.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations! With a growing company there are many changes to be made, but there is no additional labor to complete tasks. The stores revenue is growing, but there is no increase in man hours to take care of customers, handle stocking and handle store presentation. Store managers are the ones working long hours; usually 10 to 14 hours a day, 6 days a week. It is not an ideal job for anyone with a family. Low employee moral. Low pay for store employees.
