Pros

The customers were awesome. Developed relationships with every customer.. Pto was generous.

Cons

Little opportunity to use pto.. did not rollover..would lose all unused at end of year. Employees were just a number..not people. 6years of my life dedicated..closed my stored to "company realignment" aka..went online and closed store fronts. Left with nothing to show for it. Looked for every reason to not give severance package. I missed my own geandfathers funeral for this company..I was terminated without even a second thought.
