Pros

Great discounts on groceries, a company small enough to know nearly everyone. and flexibility on which locations you can work from and which shifts you perfer.

Cons

As a field manager, the company asks for ever more work to be done without any commensurate benefits. Additionally, The amount of employees each field manager is responsible for is far higher than any other company would reasonably allow.

Pros

What I loved about this job is getting full ownership over my part of the business, and I know a lot of people stick around because they feel a similar passion and ownership. Even though the company is 25 years old, there are still many areas where a much work is needed and therefore great opportunity for new people to come in and make big impact.

Cons

No flexibility for employees to work from home when needed, and terrible PTO package. The family leadership is not transparent, makes questionable business decisions.
