Pros

Salary and Bonus is GREAT for a SM . I made 143k total compensation in 2009! Store environment is clean and neat ! Store average customer clientele is good.

Cons

Way too may hours for salaried SM and # salaried ASM's Always losing your day off to prepare for a big visit with no comp day off year around. Way too many visits from RVP, SVP and even higher. Upper management is VERY Arrogant and treats you like you are trash. Always in gotcha mode. look for all your Opps with No recognition for any wins! Way too much unnecessary workload that takes us away from the customer and adds NO value to the bottom line or the company profits.
