Pros

Decent pay. Store hours 8am-8pm M-Sat, 9am-7pm sun. Closed on certain holidays. Hard to get in trouble, except if you steal merchandise.

Cons

Overworked. Long hours for Store Manager and Assistant Manager, and only a 30 minute lunch when working less than 12 hours. 30 minutes is NOT long enough of a break when you're busting yourself to work stock. No support from upper management considering how micromanaged they want stores to be (mainly depending on your DM.) Tons of distractions that keep you from successfully completeing your tasks, which can bring some morale down. Not enough payroll to perfectly maintain stores. Assistant manager hours to be cut from an average of 48 hours a week, to 40 hours. Constant district realignment due to opening new stores. Causes great frustration when having to adapt to a new DMs ways. Been with the company for a year and a half, had four different DMs. Could go on and on, but I'll give them a little break.

Pros

Great benefits, pay is manageable. The store bonuses are incredible. If you are a store manager anything lower it’s not any significance to a paycheck.

Cons

Long hours there is no work life balance. Depending on who your district manager is a lot of them are very unethical. When you do not follow what they say they will find a reason to fire you. The company itself was great, but it’s the people they hire.
