Pros

Many of the stores offer a great atmosphere and team to work with. Many of the store level employees enjoy their jobs Fun place to work when you don't have to interact with upper level management

Cons

Upper level management: Set extremely high standards, goals and targets for stores to achieve, but fail to provide adequate support to team members to allow them to achieve and reach goals. Management expects things to get done, but are constantly reducing hours leaving employees overworked, stressed and underpaid. Lack to safety in stores (due to decrease in hours and payroll). Two people on opening and closing shift in small and large/warehouse stores. Biased and unethical human resources department

Pros

Some good employees at the Store lvl

Cons

Everything else. Corporate violates HR laws daily. HR sweeps all under rug. You will regret working for this company. Pay is terrible, McDonald's pays more..... Required 50 a week for GMs. More like 60. You have been warned
