All in all it's a great company. They are a hundred years old and tryingto break out othe old habits.

It's really hard to get promoted unless you are in the training programs.

Pros

Decent hours, you get off earlier depending on the size of the truck coming in that day which can be a good and bad thing. You also get several hours before the store opens without customers. No late nights.

Cons

Too early for some, and even earlier mornings during high traffic times of the year like Christmas/Black Friday Sales days.
