Pros

Paid weekly; good health benefits; Education Incentive Reimbursement program; Paid Vacations; Paid Personal Days; Employee HR Express; Associate Reward Program; Employee Discounts.

Cons

Unappreciative Store Managers/Co-Managers; little support from upper management; ELMS based scheduling intended to divide and distribute hours for departments based on tasks/sales and save the company labor $$ but is unrealistic to the actual expectations set forth by each division; Co-managers that are not knowledgeable in the departments that they supervise; Union Based- which (to hard-working people) means that lazy people keep their jobs; anyone in lower management who shares an opinion or idea other than those of store management are rooted out or harassed.
