Pros

They make every attemp to promote from withing the company, wether it be that store or another store in the area. The benifits are fairly good in comparison to other companies I have worked for.

Cons

Once they have you marked they will go out of their way to terminate you. As Loss Prevention I was asked on several occasions to watch employees via camera to time breaks and look for other minor violations to allow them a reason to terminate the employees. Yet if they liked you I was never asked to do so and if I did happen to see them do something others were written up or terminated for nothing happened to them.

Pros

Some amazing customers and coworkers. Tasks and systems were easy to learn. Sometimes you get lucky and have amazing ASMs and SMs. It's easy to get a good survey when you treat customers like friends, be honest about what you do and don't know, and work to learn what you don't. That goes a long way with customers. I personally truly loved my job and loved spending as much time as I could at work.

Cons

Once you are on someones S*** List they will make it possible to get rid of you. Management only follows policy when it benefits them. Some people get promoted when they have no business working in retail as a leader. The A/C in the store I worked in was always broken during the summer, which made it miserable to work. Some customers are entitled due to they way management will kiss their butts to keep from losing a sale or getting a bad review. Management will make a paper trail to write you up if you mess up or are struggling instead of helping you better yourself. Management does not care about employees' work-life balance. Management does not care if their employees are struggling with personal issues like car troubles, health issues, financial issues, etc. Management will get rid of great employees but keep people who don't pull their weight. Once I hit burnout, instead of helping me, I was punished by my managers. In turn making me hate a job I truly loved.
