Pros

Was once a great company to work for. Used to have a great owner, corp team and friendly work enviroment.

Cons

Poor upper mgmt. Horrible work enviroment. The stores are forced in a position to give poor customer service and then blamed for the results. Every since the founder was forced out by his son the company has gone down hill.
