Business Outlook
Pros
Great pay for the field. Excellent benefits offered after 90 days of employment. 401 K available after one year. Best leave and holiday program. 10 paid holidays and 4 hours annual and 4 hours sick leave per pay period. 6/6 for veterans and former military. Worldwide company with and excellent chance to travel the world.
Cons
Because this is a government retail establishment, there are certain unrealistic expectations of the employees. Also there are very limited promotions from within. Most management positions are filled from outside hires. Often a person working as a supervisor for 5 years in one location will have to train two or three new managers. This is disappointing and discouraging.
