Pros

I’ve built great friendships and they were the only things that made the experience bearable.

Cons

Management is terrible, lazy and absolutely rude. They are also very selfish and do not care about employees and the troubles they face while working due to limited resources and help. As long as the managers are happy (which usually consist of them eating and watching sports games in the back office), they do not care about how their employees and store is being ran. On top of everything, if you ask for an ounce of help you get degraded and there is a noticeable shift in the manager’s attitude towards you. Corporate and Human Resources are practically useless because they redirect your concerns back to your manager in hopes that you can solve the issues yourself, but all that does is create more issues. If I could give this company less than one star, I would.

Pros

They (management) can be reasonable at times, such as with your breaks and scheduling.

Cons

My current management isn't giving me enough hours to be even decently sustainable, yet they have open-shifts available that they could assign to anyone, so why not give those hours to people who are severely underscheduled? If you want your workers to work for you, treat them right and compensate them fairly, and stop expecting them to come in everytime you text them just because someone else called out, maybe you need to give the people who constantly call out less hours because they aren't being reliable, and you need to give more hours to the people who do come to work and get things done, because they've proven to be reliable and willing to come in on their assigned days.
