Unis-Select ruined a great mom & pop operation....

Pros

Many DC's to draw stock from. Some +'s with their POS system. Great foreign nameplate coverage by owning Beck/Arnley.

Cons

More concerned with complicating their corporate structure than providing their employees the tools and motivation to do what they're paid to do. VERY investor driven. Wage increases are meager at best. Constantly adds new and expensive layers to corporate hierarchy, while whittling away store level employee hours to compensate. More regional/district/general/middle managers than counterpeople. And Richard Roy, who is also Independent Director of Dollarama Inc. Maybe a strategic merger is in the works? 3 pack of foil cake pans with my brake pads please!

Pros

The company has a lot of opportunities for sideways promotions. The work is easy enough, the job is fairly secure.

Cons

Safety regulations are usually not a top priority, getting orders picked was the top priority. They usually hire many temp workers with promises of full-time work, but I have yet to see a part time worker hired on full time. In the year I was there.
