Pros

Well, you perceive a good salary, training, workwear, and can be promoted after a one-year period or shortly before if a manager or boss thinks you have earned that opportunity because of your well-done work. That depends on every manager so I cannot say that it always happens certainly. It's a decent job for a teenager because a degree is not needed at lower positions and the revenues are good.

Cons

At the beginning there's no problem. But time goes on you will be required to stay more hours that if you have to go to college might be a serious problem. Extra hours usually are paid but not always. You also have to take courses and trainings and usually you are not notified with enough time to arrange or reschedule your duties. If a partner absents and there's nobody to come to work and let you to leave then you'll have to stay. I don't really understand why there's so much personnel rotation, the work is not complicated, you don't need a specialized knowledge because everything is easy and receive training. Women are treated better than men, even they have preference in schedules and do easy activities in constrast to men.

Pros

good work value and environment friendly

Cons

The manager would call my phone at 3 am to tell me to unload a truck full of drinks alone, constantly, even though it was never mentioned or docked as pay.

Pros

Pay, Schedule Flexibility and Local Teams - That is where the pro's stop

Cons

Upper Management don't seem to have a clue! They do cuts throughout the company every 2 to 3 years just to hire back/hire new people into roles they eliminated 6 months earlier. They say they value people and their concerns but the majority of workers say nothing about the toxic work environment created by Zone Leaders and above in fear of being singled out. They create positions that don't add value to the field and add more and more work onto field staff. Size of areas continually change - first its 10, then 12, then 16, back to 12 and back to 14+ stores. No consistency in there direction, they train you to manage the whirlwind but the problem is...... they create the whirlwind! Upper Management is a do as I say, no questions asked
