Pros

Always got my hours and a little overtime.

Cons

No pay raise, even after giving you unofficial promotion, meaning more work without the pay. A lot of favoritism, along with seniority, Only the General managers favorites were scheduled Monday thru Friday 7 to 3 or 4. One was being paid to train new employees and she never trained me or anyone the year I was there because I did the training or people in 2nd or 3rd shift would train. I got fired for a cash shortage on a day I didn't use the register, the week before management called me into question me on why I reported them to district manager, next week im fired. Company had a problem with not giving lunches and would edit time so we wont get paid and they wont be in trouble. I can go on.

Pros

Pay is decent for Knoxville Benefits are good Coworkers are the only thing holding this place together

Cons

The culture has taken a nosedive. The new CFO sets the tone, and that tone is basically “I don’t care.” That attitude trickles down through leadership and it shows in every decision being made. The return‑to‑office mandate is a perfect example. It’s not about productivity — it’s about control. People with long commutes are burning hours of their lives just to sit in the office on Zoom calls they used to take from home. Morale is the lowest it has ever been. Entire teams have been gutted because people are quitting faster than they can be replaced. The workload dumped on whoever stays is unsustainable. Communication from leadership is cold, dismissive, and out of touch. Feedback goes nowhere. Concerns are brushed off. Decisions are made with zero regard for how they impact employees. Constant reorganizations create chaos. Roles change overnight, expectations shift constantly, and employees are expected to absorb more and more with no support. The company used to feel people‑focused. Now it feels like a machine that’s grinding down the very people who keep it running.
