Pros

Decent pay as a GM (50k in florida, plus up to 10k a year in bonus if store is running well financially). Lots of room to move up as people are always being fired or quitting at high positions, easy to build a nice resume.

Cons

High turnover, extreme expectations with no real assistance. Employee and lower managers make almost nothing, its hard to hold people accountable to a higher standard when they are overworked and under paid, most good people leave for better paying, easier jobs. Some regional management is decent, most Ive met expect the impossible and preach it as "easy". You will work more than 5 days a week and 50 hours to cover shifts, and will routinely run short.

Pros

Lots of flexibility and good company benefits. Cool office space and good people. The company wants you to learn more and give you the opportunity to do so.

Cons

In the corporate space, very limited career growth opportunities. Current manager micromanages but not terribly. Company performance stinks and leadership does not want to take accountability.
