Pros

Relatively good pay, increasing annually. Develops good work ethic and management structure.

Cons

Doing the work of 6 people. Pushed too harshly for productivity. Expected to break employment law and work a close - open (had to sleep in my car in the carpark) Area managers too harsh on store management and do not listen to justifications of incomplete work. Expected to be on call. No work life balance at all.
