Pros

NONE. This is not an exaggeration. There are no perks or good health benefits. There are a good amount of lower staff there where great to work with but after being beaten down so much from higher management the culture just was awful. I worked at headquarters, the building is nice but the cubes are so small you have to roll your chair out of your cube so you can get out. They are so cheap when a forces remodel was done they didn't match carpet so there's 4 different ones. It's so pathetic how they function. The best (sarcasm) is when VPs walk around with prescription medicine. It's like a trophy to them. That happened all the time. You would see people with bottles on their desk and proudly say out loud so others can hear "I'm dying but I'm still here!" So if you're sick, they can compare your migraine doesn't count since they came back to work 2 days after major surgery.

Cons

Our boss actually told us "your benefit is getting a paycheck" after we complained there wasn't any positive moral and intensives for as hard as they worked us. I would have left sooner but they micromanage your hours so much it was hard to try to schedule interviews. Each VP takes turns walking the floors to see who is in late or doesn't stay after hours. Our boss would mention: It's 8am, not 8:05. Which is fair theoretically even if we where all exempt employees, but she would never count the long hours we worked after 5pm. And it was long hours. During a meeting she expressed for every 5 minutes we where late (which was rare) that it would cost the company a certain amount. When we countered for every hour we worked after 5pm we didn't get OT, that wasn't appreciated. I HATED working there, my team kept me sane. The worst where some of the BMDs. They lie to clients about being able to fulfill their needs without letting corporate teams know about projects. So you would get yelled at when you can't complete something in a impossible timeline.

Pros

None. There were some good things before they let artificial intelligence take over, but those are gone now.

Cons

Your schedule changes each day around 3am via text. It will also change as your day goes on. Very unpredictable schedule. Hard to plan your life around. If you have kids DO NOT APPLY! Artificial intelligence controls the schedule. You will be scheduled 14 hours one day and 2 hours the next, then around noon your schedule might change again. It is madness. You will ruin your car. I clocked almost 100k miles in 2+ years. They offer gas reimbursement that is low and spotty, but they do not account for car repairs, like oil changes, tires, etc... my car is a brick now. Corporate has no idea what they are doing. They will assign one hour to do a sixteen hour task, then assign twenty minutes to do a task that takes one minute. They are beyond clueless. You will have roughly a dozen+ stores to take care of. I didn't mind that so much, but dealing with so many staff and managers can get overwhelming. The artificial intelligence started emailing stores my schedule. "Why weren't you here at 5am yesterday!?". Well, because I don't work that early, and I had a ten hour task at my other store yesterday. Do not apply here unless you have no kids, no life or responsibilities, and do not mind ruining your car.
