Pros

Highly respected in industry. Good Asset on Resume. I personally liked working there because of the team I was on. This was one of their top stores.

Cons

Like all retail raises if any are miniscule. I was let go because of pandemic. I was supposed to be called back but despite being one of stores top performers I was let go because of my age. Hiring used to be done by the individual stores but now it has been turned over to a 3rd party. I reapplied when things got better and they said it was nice gettiing to know you but were going to pass on hiring you The store manager wanted me back but the 3rd party group blocked that. I worked there 8 yrs missing only about 10 days over 8 yrs.

Pros

Looks great on your resume Opportunity to find talented people

Cons

Uses promises of unsustainable career growth as an incentive (ex you could get promoted only for the company to fire 2000 managers) Does not hire managers based on experience or talent (my manager had never been in a managerial position and only had three years of experience in the role from ten years ago) Management will gaslight you when you prevent concerns or reluctant to listen and defend bad behavior. Example: I cut off a piece of my finger and was told by management “It’s not like you’re dying so we’ll fill out an incident report in the morning” and walked back into her meeting. She expected me to keep working while I was profusely bleeding! When managers in other departments filed the incident report for me and documented my leader’s behavior, I was told that she didn’t know how to fill out an incident report and she didn’t appreciate that I went to other managers for help.
