Pros

Has been a very long term job, good salary, 100 year company, stable store growth, anyone can move up to store manager now.

Cons

MVP, management out of touch with employees, has hurt sales bonuses, stores are harder to run, no payroll, no longer excepting certain pbm's bad for service. Anyone can get to the store manager position.

Pros

If you know people in in the right places, it could be a great place to work. The pay level for upper management is very good, but promotions are contigent on who you know.

Cons

1) Lower management always seems to be placed at the furthest stores to work from their homes. You will literally pass 5-10 other stores to get to your assigned store. You have no say or compensation for this as well. 2) No support from uppr management and no real power to hire or discipline hourly employeees. 3) Np real training to help you advance, but this doesn't really matter as there is no real advancement oppurtunity unless you have friends or family in higher management poistions.
