Pros

-Due to union, health benefits available for part-time workers after a year. -Seniority system rewards those who've been there the longest -PTO roll-over -Great people interaction

Cons

-Due to union, salary is non-negotiable and hits a ceiling, (can't earn any more) after years of experience unless union contract gets updated. -HR personnel eliminated and not replaced during/after recession also union reps have many stores to cover, so no one to go to/represent you at the store level. -Strong resistance to department transfers and store to store transfers. -Revolving door

Pros

Some good people work here

Cons

It Management team has been together for years and resists any change. 100% top down. Personal initiative is not overly welcome. Too many of the less senior managers know nothing practical.
