Pros

people on your team have your back where management consistently fails

Cons

Racist management, extreme micromanaging. There are a lot of horrid people who have made this place miserable for decades that should have been fired a long time ago. Higher ups steal credit for work and are severely lacking in skill and industry knowledge. It shows in the store quality. This is a place where creativity comes to die. You will need multiple side gigs to make ends meet because wages will barely cover rent.
