Pros
The compensation compared to the work expected is phenomenal. I would say the amount of work expected from my $30 an hour position is comparable to what people who made $20-25 at other retailers are expected to do, and that pay discrepancy seems to go up the chain of management as well.
Cons
This higher pay scale ends up being rather detrimental for promotions and advancement though, as it's easy for the company to find qualified people from outside the company. So, for instance, an assistant manager at HFT has to compete with external candidates who were managers at Wal-Mart, Amazon, etc.
