Pros

They pay you every week

Cons

Expect to work 65 to 70 hours per week and that means physical labor on your feet stocking, cleaning, running a register cleaning toilets, sweeping , and mopping the floor cleaning the parking lot taking out trash etc. Oh and by the way you will need to manage every aspect of store ops as well. No thanks will be given, you will never get done with the tasks. You will never catch up. Your pay will average less than 8.00 per hour.

Pros

There are no pros for working for this company. The store manager promotes Key holders within 2 wks of being hired. So theres no training and she rehires employee whom she has fired for theft. If your not kin too her in some way, you wont be there long. In the 7 mos ive been there we have around 10 or more employees come and go.

Cons

The pay is low and the hours that schedule you for isnt enough to live on. Thats why there is a revolving door. If your not kin to store manager you get no perks.
