Pros

Full time promised pay, room for growth, paid training, benefits, incident insurance, marketing.

Cons

Some policy and procdures make our job more difficult but each one is honestly well thought out and has a reason behind it. They prevent shortcuts but I think that is a good thing truthfully.

Pros

If you have experience they can pay very well considering the size of the company. Depending on which store you are in, they can be pretty good at fostering a good environment and culture.

Cons

Company is primarily focused on sales and not customer experience. So expect a lot of metrics and hounding customers. Company is trying to be technologically forward but continues to neglect to invest in the technology. So there’s updates every week crashes every week with no communication around it.
