Pros

Security, benefits, relocation and advancement possibilities. Lots of locations. Requires little education or experience to get hired. Flexible hours for students, retirees, etc.

Cons

Promotions are very confusing, we run out of ad merchandise, customers have been trained to be a pain. Work is labor intensive and boring. Constant state of chaos.

Pros

Great pay for similar positions compared to other companies. If you like to be busy, this is the place for you.

Cons

There's not a lot of communication from upper management. The scheduling is unfair, new MGT's work only nights and weekends. Not a lot of HR presence so it is hard to advance your career. Hours are long, you might have to work overnight also. Communication and feedback is hard to come by. There's not a lot of challenging work, even though you need a college degree to be a manager.
