Pros

With GOI, you have real opportunity to own your own business. You have a great partner with goals aligned with your own. If you still have a passion from the days of the true merchants, this is the place for you. If you desire to make a difference in your community, if you need to free yourself from the shackles of corporate red tape, if you just want to do it your way, if you want endless income potential, if you have a competitive spirit with the work ethic to win the customer, this is the place for you! If you desire any of these qualities in your work place, why are you working for someone else? Take a leap. I assure you, you can do it. You'll have all the support you need along your way to independence.

Cons

Business ownership is not for the meek. You need true grit. This company had recently gone through some difficult changes in our system updates. Those "growing pains" have mostly corse corrected. This group of leaders and operators are in position to drive results and income for this brand.

Pros

Nearby, always had mandated breaks. Had a close friend death occur and recieved immediate time off and support from one manager.

Cons

Very little training given, minor mistakes at other companies equal write-ups here, inefficient retraining, and 2/3rds of upper management ignoring me and acting immature for my final week because I quit
