Pros

1) Decent pay at the entry-level. 2) Good retention bonus. Starts at 2.5% in your first year and increases 2.5% each year thereafter to a max of 15.0%. I think this is managers only, though.

Cons

1) Crappy benefits and John Menard is the 37th richest person in the United States. He's sitting on $20.7 billion but has healthcare with a high deductible and max-out of pocket. There's also no 401k profit match. That's ridiculous right there for the amount of money he has available. 2) The store I worked at, Germantown, had people with no social skills. It's hard to explain, but people don't talk to each other much. They literally just walk by. I didn't take this personally. It was just weird. I'm not an extrovert and I had to start conversations to get to know people. Odd when you're the new guy. People were nice. Just odd. Never seen anything like it before.
