Pros

For the Assistant Manager position you get paid fairly well for a fairly easy job. It is requires very little thought to perform your job and there is never any stress to bring home.

Cons

As with most retail management, you will never be fully happy with your schedule. It is very boring. You are essentially a glorified shelf stocker. The only difference is that you count money and are the person that gets yelled at by customers when they are unhappy. They can move you from one store to another as often as they like with not much notice.

Cons

-Promotions and responsibility based on tenure and familial ties as opposed to ability -Not forward thinking company -Lousy benefits -Not a good place to get to try new ideas but rather a place where old ideas come to die
