Pros

Easy to be promoted to store manager due to extremely high turnover, benefits are sufficient, can be a fun environment to work in.

Cons

As store manager you are: the cashier, the stocker, the visual merchandiser, AND the manager... most time working as a manager is alone in the store with no employees, by far the lowest pay for a retail manager I have heard of, instability at district management and up, poor POS systems, lack of accountability for home office/warehouse employees, corporate policy changes constantly.
