Pros

- The bonuses are nice and are quarterly. - Friendly people working in the office if you're lucky to see them, when majority of the office is remote.

Cons

- No Midyear or Quarterly reviews, only annual. - Not much room for career progression within this company. - Office Manager and Customer Service Manager are in kahoots and will cover up data and real issues in the department to save themselves. - High Customer Service turnover but no one addresses the real problems in the department, the manager. - Management is not trained in having difficult conversations or being professional. Management has told new hires that she is petty and doesn't mind being a bully, and only chooses the easy tickets during training and interviews. - Will offer additional duties but no there is no conversations about job title changes or pay increases.

Pros

I'd imagine experiences are unique to the store/brand you support, but so far my experience with Sonic has been fantastic. Good support at corporate level and amazing teams and culture.

Cons

Some antiquated approaches to finance processing and time keeping, but nothing substantial enough to be an issue
