Pros

Descent benefits if you can survive the work culture.

Cons

Company culture generally negative. Hours required for insurance are 45 hours per week. Office management micro-managed work. When I had to take time off to take my kids to doctor's appointments I was given negative feedback. Female staff was generally uncomfortable being in confined spaces with the owner due to his unpleasant perspective on women working. Good people in any negative work situation turn negative. I generally found that's what happened in the work situations I found myself in. Within the retail side of the company, the part-time staff was required to stay late after closing with no prior notice to help unload unscheduled deliveries to the store.

Pros

40+ Hours per week of work guaranteed.

Cons

A toxic work environment can lead to termination without warning. Senior management prioritizes their interests and the company’s well-being, often disregarding employees’ rights and legal obligations. HR’s role is to protect senior management and the company, potentially at the expense of employees’ rights. Senior management continually chooses to a blind eye to wrong doing of favored employees, while knowingly prioritizing punishment of lower employees using fabricated policies that aren’t actually within store policy and procedures. Lack of accountability, lack of transparency, and lack of integrity run rampant with in the store and company. Unethical hiring practices, and weaponized incompetence to justify the out right gaslighting of your financial income and incentives. Pay deductions common place.
