Pros

Money. Plain and simple. They pay very well if you are good at your job. The benefits and 401k are also good reasons to work there.

Cons

Micro management is going to happen weather you like it or not. Hours, there is no work life balance. Zero loyalty. They make you think you are part of a team but I have know men that were extremely good at their jobs and had been there for more than 20 years and were let go over things that they not only couldn’t control but were not even aware they were going on.

Pros

- Very very easy to move up in the company. If you dedicate a couple years and show skill in sales you can move up to a sales manager position extremely fast. If you are willing to move the opportunity to move up is even significantly easier and faster. - Almost all of management started at the bottom and worked their way up, if possible they always hire from within. - Good money, get out what you put in. - Direct Management is great, local and even regional management is almost even fantastic, but any higher then that becomes out of touch and very frustrating to (albeit indirectly) work with.

Cons

- Inconsistent at times about expectations, at times asking for one thing then immediately needing the other. Can be frustrated to be pulled in so many directions, but not even remotely unmanageable. - Lot's of hours, especially in management. Prime time? (March-End of May) Say goodbye to your personal life! Mandatory 1/2 day Saturdays, definitely a grind but worth it. - Frustrating policies and illogical outlook on what success looks like.
