Business Outlook
Pros
Large portfolio of stores in 24 states and still growing; growth funded internally, so long-term debt is very manageable; lost cost operation fits in well with selected geographic locations (WalMart parking lots and vicinity)
Cons
Too many forward-looking projects negatively impacting day-to-day operations; past culture of immediacy and aggressiveness being changed to careful (and most of the time plodding), multi-level meeting-dense approval process; almost all new hires coming from outside the company; by dragging feet on new WalMart agreement, WM has broken off talks and is now testing their own gas station concept
