Pros

It’s a relatively easy job the actual work, and the people are rlly nice bc they hire according to personality so they look for naturally friendly positive and nice people. Most of the managers care about crew and take our feedback rlly well. We also get automatic biannual reviews with a chance for a wage increase which is rlly nice.

Cons

Still a corporation. There are new standardizations going in place that are kind of stamping out my stores individuality
