Pros

I would have to say that the hourly staff that I had the pleasure and honor of working with would be considered as " TOP NOTCH ".

Cons

Zero work/life balance. No training. One the oddest companies I have worked with, when attending a seminar at the corp. office Ok City a VP told our group his rule to be successful with HL was god, family then HL in that order. I don't believe my DM got that memo. It is a common practice to work a 14+ hr day alone without a meal/break. You will work 65+ hrs a week. My store mgr ? WOW a very insecure totally disconnected individual ( ideal puppet for DM ) with short man syndrome . If you have no life or people skills , then this is the mgmt. position for you .
