Pros

Great when working for corporate stores have clicks

Cons

Corporate needs to check some management they trash customers the minute they walk out the door and treat employees especially bar if coming from another banner (BD) because they do not like their sàlary they were making loved job when working for corporate DM has blinders on and managers that have been there many years think they are untouchable and can treat employees like crap cussing at them etc..against company policy I know other people who have gotten fired for cussing at individuals just because numbers are good does not mean they treat the employees well(all except his little select group of employees) oh and since when do they tell everyone in the store your pay amount does not make for a good work environment

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.
