Pros

The people that you meet, whether it be customers or co-workers, can provide an endless amount of opportunity and job satisfaction

Cons

The middle management of the stores definitely exercise the Peter Principle quite well. For those that don't know, the Peter Principle focuses on the effect of people who are promoted just outside of their talent level, so they are basically doomed to fail. A lot of this has to do with the hiring policies of individual stores though since it probably varies. Management at my store lack the leadership qualities that define a true leader, which should go hand in hand with the title of manager.

Good health benefits, some 401k match

12 hour shifts, subpar bonus', limited upward mobility as managers and upper management did not want to promote from within and risk operational change causing productivity decline
