Pros

Some associates are great to work for Wages get paid on time A wage increase of 25 cents per hour if you work really hard A paltry bonus paid every six months A great staff room with uncomfortable chairs , no A/C and a broken tv

Cons

Nepotism Favouritism and the good ol boy network Managers blow smoke up your butt The training videos are so pathetic written for people with the attention span of a dyslexic gnat You can really go places and be where you want to be ....if you're prepared to lower your standards and really kiss butt All the adverts for jobs insist you must have culinary skills and degrees ....yeah right....I feel I wasted my time and career in culinary This job enthused me to return to school , learn new skills and change my career If you love to be undervalued and appreciated then this is the place for you

You get paid every week.

Cons

• They talk to you like you're stupid. • Their tone becomes more aggressive when you don't brown nose them. • They don't lead by example nor implement any teamwork. • They make daily operations more difficult to complete as a flex. • They disguise their racism towards employees as company policy institution. • They become spiteful when you don't fall in line and take out their frustration on your workers while store management look the other way. • They talk negatively about you in group chats and emails. • They pretend to be inefficient when they don't want to help. • They harass & imprison your workers as soon as you clock out (by eyewitness accounts). • Management will sabotage your evaluation, hire special needs people for critical thinking jobs, & accept underperforming associates from other stores just to save money. • Higher-ups will deny qualified applicants employment while conspiring to hire the children of old classmates who purposefully show up to work late. • Store management will physically assault minors who steal on the premises and act openly racists to shoppers of color.
