Pros

Growing company with good customer base. Staffing levels let you learn all aspects of store operations. Corporate policy stresses customer service. Full time positions offer reasonably good benefits for retail trade.

Cons

Poor supply chain, IT system a nightmare. Hight turnover of managers. Little chance for advancement with company, district managers prefer to higher asst. managers and managers from outside of company. Budgets watched closely your hours will be cut if sales are not met. HR has policy of "Salary Matrix" that limits pay raises for long term employees. Very demanding work environment. Managers placing margin ahead of sales and customer service, have no problem selling defective or poor quality merchandise to customers and not standing behind the product.

Pros

You can count on getting biweekly paychecks.

Cons

Words do not exist to adequately describe just how dysfunctional the FAST organization has become. The problem isn’t the people—it’s the structure. Every level of FAST is treated as second-class by Operations, but the hourly FTMs bear the brunt of it. They’re expected to execute impossible workloads while navigating resistance, conflicting priorities, and a complete lack of operational ownership. FAST leadership regularly talks about holding stores and Operations accountable. Yet the moment accountability creates friction or invites criticism, they retreat instead of standing behind their teams. The result is predictable: the people doing the work lose confidence that anyone above them will support them when it matters most. A department cannot succeed when it has responsibility without authority, accountability without support, and expectations without organizational commitment. That’s the reality of FAST today. It’s not just disappointing—it’s unsustainable.
