A career killer of an organization!

Pros

There are no pros to this place. Owned by Bain Capital. No morals, no integrity.

Cons

Low salary, Long hours. District and regional managers are out of touch with the realities of day to day store operations. Store are lightly staffed and the employees are poorly compensated. Bonus's are impossible to reach unless you are in a firmly established location. No advertising is done so Corporate expects the store to market itself but they do not provide internet access or any of the necessary tools to do so. A poorly run organization.
