Pros

It is all what you make it , your choice to be Manager of your store is all yours just do it and stop complaining, jobs are not out there so just do the one you have and it works alot easier if you enjoy the work your in. I personal have loads of fun at work everyday, at my store.

Cons

need more time allowed for everyday task , more hours to stores to be able to complete all tasks ask of us to better serve of customers running on two and three employees in not great customer service

Pros

Paid every week. If you want to work part-time, this is a good job for you. 401k, insurance *discount* card (not real insurance), and minimum wage available

Cons

It seems there are not enough hours available to run the store. The Manager seems highly stressed out and the Assistant is very abusive to the other employees, which I gather is from the high stress level she endures. It is what it is, a job.

Pros

Thankful to have a Job.Get paid weekly. Can get insurance if you can afford to pay for it.

Cons

Too many hours for the pay. No time for family. Company expects much more than they are willing to give.No perks for Managers that other employees get other than quartly bonus if you meet their almost impossible expectations. Required to work 48 hrs and almost every weekend and have to close at least 2 nights a week.
