Pros

Good pay, benefits for full time, sundays off and fellow employees are great. Framing is (at least in my store) fast paced and rewarding, you see a lot of interesting artwork and work on a lot of interesting projects.

Cons

Company is very strict about store lay out, which is reasonable. Not much room for growth. and the music is LAME.

Pros

Very good starting pay ($12/hour) and lots of overtime Decent insurance after 90 days Very respectful co-workers Chance to take financial and other courses on-the-clock!!

Cons

Very physical; we work on cement floors all day with no padding Days can reach 12 hours in December Less than 8-hour days in January and February (makes budgeting difficult) Management expects "yes sir" or "yes ma'am"; some team leaders are very strict regarding talking to other workers Very strict attendance policy. Regardless of the circumstance, we are disciplined if we miss a day of work (even when in the hospital!!) Must have either personal time or vacation accrued to avoid discipline.
