Pros

Used to be fun work environment while accomplishing workload. Lots of recognition, felt no discrimination as I am a minority. Could use creative solutions to solve problems.

Cons

Now backstabbing environment. Unrealistic workload. Store manager will not say do not do workload, just say make payroll. When you are not able to complete workload due to payroll constraints you are made to feel unsuccessul. No teamwork, backstabbing and all for themselves attitude only by some of the other executives.

Pros

great opportunities to move around within the company, some great young talented people, lots of opportunities to do everything from property management, marketing, finance, distribution/supply chain, financial products, stores management, building services - you name it, it's there.

Cons

- not friendly in considering flexible work arrangements like the other big retailer in town (ROWE) or job share arrangement - can be more political than it used to be with more people positioning and overtly lobbying to look good in front of others - it happens everywhere but have noticed more of this in the last 3 years - performance measurement puts people in a "Performance/Potential" grid that can be difficult to get out of a certain "label" that can inhibit advancement - likewise, a certain Leadership Profile test can stick around forever and cap your career at a certain level
