Pros
I understand that there are those who woud disagree with my following comments, however, please understand that I work in a KMart store that goes against your typical KMart store grain. We have an outstanding management team, not without their problems, but they work quite together quite well in spite of it. Flexible Scheduling to coordinate with home life is probably their best attribute. Training employees to work in more than one area of the store so that they have enough coverage. A sense of working with a team rather than being on your own. Open door management policy Clean and properly maintained. Emphasis on customer service.
Cons
NO feedback whatsoever on job performance until time for yearly evaluation then you get a shock. No clear and obvious track to moving into management. Miniscule pay raises. Keeping unreliable employees while not doing enough to keep their better employees from moving on. Could try a bit more praise at employee meetings.
