Pros

Work hard lose weight. Some stores are friendly. Easy to advance. Good health care.

Cons

When HR says in your orientation not to solve problems or if you come up with an innovation, leave the company, you have a problem. Worked almost 3000 hrs. in a year. 60+ hours norm for managers up to 80+ and 100 hr work weeks not uncommon. No sleep, no time off, when you get time off you sleep and rest from working hard for 10 to 16 hrs.

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
