Pros
-No two days are alike -Meeting lots of different people with different work ethics and learning how to use peoples strengths per store needs -understanding how retail store budgets and operates -developing associates to the stores requirements -hours go by as you will always be multitasking -must have high energy as it is very fast pace
Cons
- More thorough interview process and strict termination procedure (include ASM) -Develop an app for call offs that can easily be used for management looking for bodies when call offs occur as call offs are a weekly thing, hence my suggestion for a more thorough hiring process. Always being understaffed takes a toll on health and mental health of workers. Store cannot be up to DM/DOO standards with continuous hiring of incompetent associates who have no desire to be developed nor who understand the physical demand of the job prior to hiring. -DM are hiring just to have an able body and thus the store suffers as others have to do their work as well. -Termination procedures should be more clear and affective. -Long hours due to lack of good employees and their nonexistent work ethic. -Disrespected/threatened by employees and DM doesn’t handle situations seriously
