Pros

Great perks available to Associates which is why I've stayed as long as I have. Good pay, some flexibility depending on who your manager is.

Cons

Not as much work-life balance as they would lead you to believe. Wide gap in how salary & hourly are treated - almost as if hourly are "worthless" or not "up to standard" to receive the same benefits as salary. Little to no appreciation. It's all in who you know and that's the only way you'll ever be able to move internally into another role.
