Pros

The customers and the co-workers within the store walls are by far the most down to earth and best people to interact with.

Cons

Tractor Supply likes to say they promote within; however, I have not seen much of this. There are two employees in the Putnam, CT store that go above and beyond expectations and it gets them no where. I think that there are times that the DMs keep certain people in their roles to keep the manager in line instead of promoting on merit. It doesn't seem like they care about the work-life balance and keeping to their word.

Pros

Customers were the best reason to work there. Normally fun environment and customers are excited to see new stores.

Cons

Labor budget cuts with little notice to adjust scheduling. Expected to do more with less people. Often operated numerous store with 2 people opening and then 2 people closing. Sales plan was developed by someone in office 2000 miles away. Management team expected to do most of duties while answering phones, unloading trucks, loading customer purchases with little OT allowed. District managers can have negative impact when visiting and making corrections they feel are best rather than coaching new managers why changes are needed. Managers don't have experience doing scheduling and aren't trained before getting thrust into store openings on a system they can't navigate around or even open.

Depends on the manager

Pros

Decent benefits, vacation for full time team members, employee discount. If you want to move up in the company, they are very open to that.

Cons

Average pay for retail. Company cuts hours due to slow sales then sends out a company wide e-mail stating that the company topped $5 billion in sales for the first time. Kind of a mixed message.
