Pros

It's better than being unemployed

Cons

1. It's a good old boys club, sales reps and management get PAID and flaunt it while doing little to no work. Counter workers, mechanics, and drivers do the "heavy lifting" and carry the majority of the workload with little to no reward. 2. Profit Sharing is a joke, the company has grown and looks good financially on paper, but you will NOT see the results as a front line, difference maker. 3. Be prepared to be asked to do anything and everything and get nothing in return. 4. They hire from outside when they could promote within or they promote the least qualified. 5. Don't expect a big raise. 25 cents to 50 cents a year with no other opportunity for raises outside of yearly review. 6. Leadership will actively under staff locations in order to pad their pockets I assume. 7. No opportunities given to front line employees for feedback to upper management. 8. Medical benefits for a family of four is equivalent to 1/3 of your paycheck. 9. Training and communication about standard operating procedure is almost non-existent.

Pros

It's a job with benefits.

Cons

Wages are lower than competitors. Profit share is never had because of inflated budgets. Unless you are a "friend" of upper management you won't get promoted or shift jobs. HR emails and sets wage increases to be at 3% even if you should get more. While the rest of us that do the work are barely getting by on what we make, upper management are all happy and bragging to people about the new vacation house, boat, or new cars they just got. Along with the stock they have in the company that they don't offer to all the rest of the employees that is going up..... They never tell you "good job!" It is always what can they find and tell you that you need to work on even if your store is profitable!

Pros

Company as a whole is positive and fun. I hear from employees in other districts that they have excellent middle management that actually cares about each employee and wants everyone to move up and succeed.

Cons

Middle management in this area has no trust in the employees. They want to micro manage each employee and their methods. There is absolutely no room for advancement as they just hire in from competitors, and therefore, turnover is super high.
