Pros

Best place to work in a small town but that's not really saying much in a town full of fast food and Walmart

Cons

No matter how good of an employee you are it still only depends on who you know. Way too many levels of management. They stay surfing on the internet while telling hourly associates to stay off their phones. Hypocrisy. There is absolutely no leadership in management only "boss" mentality. It seems like it's general managements life mission is to promote the most incompetent person they can find. Management has no regard for employee engagement and morale suffers immensely with most hourly associates talking about Union so they can get some type of representation.

Pros

If you are okay supporting a business that is focused on building wealth instead of developing skills and business understanding of objectives, then you will fit right in as long as you learn two important phrases "Great idea boss" and "Yes sir, I will carry out all of your plans so you will be recognized by upper management". DON'T ROCK THE BOAT!

Cons

I have already posted a con, but noticed another con that other posts point to. I read about disappointment of no remote work anymore. Remote work is difficult; you have a hard time building collaboration, teamwork and trust in a remote situation. But as I look at myself, I am on-site and love coming to work - would rather be around my team and have a constant pulse on the culture where I can address any issues immediately. Ask yourself, other than the loss of commute time and being in the comfort of your own home - why do people prefer to work from home. Many times, it can be due to avoiding the stress and anxiety that exists at work. Now ask yourself, what would make people want to be in the office versus at home. Whether you are remote or in person, not wanting to come into the office may be a sign that you are not happy and lacking fulfillment from your current circumstances.
