Good pay and benefits to compensate for poor employee advancement opportunity.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great pay for the field. Excellent benefits offered after 90 days of employment. 401 K available after one year. Best leave and holiday program. 10 paid holidays and 4 hours annual and 4 hours sick leave per pay period. 6/6 for veterans and former military. Worldwide company with and excellent chance to travel the world.

Cons

Because this is a government retail establishment, there are certain unrealistic expectations of the employees. Also there are very limited promotions from within. Most management positions are filled from outside hires. Often a person working as a supervisor for 5 years in one location will have to train two or three new managers. This is disappointing and discouraging.

Pros

for the benfits if you are part time or full time and can afford it

Cons

hire managment positions from outside the company but always talk about hiring from within. They even have programs to go through to get advanced but even after doing the progarms they still hire someone from outside the company and then want you to teach that person how to do the job they were hired for.
