Pros

You make a lot of money

Cons

Working 70+ hours, meetings at LEAST twice a week for several hours even after working all day. When finished working for the day, you have to go back at night for an hour or two so don't make plans if your working that day. You have to stock, clean, change out the register. Call in to your superior at least 3 times a day with staffing, payroll and sales. Cut your stores grass, paint, custodian, cook, administrator, landscaper. You are only promised 4 days off a month and they stick close to that. Your off days change. When you are off they still call you when problems arise big and small. You get calls all hours of the night a lot! You will work several times 14 to 20 days straight. When the rest of the world runs on 7 days a week they run on 8 days a week to limit your days off.
