Decent hours and pay, but uncomfortable customer approach

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent hours, decent pay, assuming you're in a management position.

Cons

Lack of bonuses, and the heavy focus on 'The Shoppe' , customer service method was heavily lacking and only succeeded in making customers uncomfortable. I was told numerous times that it felt too pushy and made people hesitant to shop there.

Pros

great community and great relationships with peers

Cons

Company doesn’t place value in its junior employees to create ladders for them to grow within the business. Many entry level employees leave after 2 years or it takes about 3yrs before they even remotely see promotion.
