Pros

Family comes first, no matter the situation. From Division leadership all the way down the abundance of teamwork and ability to make relationships outside your own store is amazing.

Cons

Hourly employees struggle to pay their bills due to lack of payroll. From a management perspective, there is easily twice the amount of work that needs to be done on a daily basis than our payroll budget allows for.

Pros

This was a good job with some great aspects from a professional view. The work was straightforward and by the book for the most part.

Cons

Unfortunately, at the time of my employment, there was a weird culture in the store which was being fostered by someone who I understand has been let go now. I was not comfortable continuing at this place once this person became my boss.

Pros

There are no pros for working for this company. The store manager promotes Key holders within 2 wks of being hired. So theres no training and she rehires employee whom she has fired for theft. If your not kin too her in some way, you wont be there long. In the 7 mos ive been there we have around 10 or more employees come and go.

Cons

The pay is low and the hours that schedule you for isnt enough to live on. Thats why there is a revolving door. If your not kin to store manager you get no perks.
