Pros

I started as a cashier and have managed 2 departments and worked in several other areas. great training for DIY projects. Management salaries and bonuses are good and there is tons of opportunities to promote.

Cons

As a manager you are required to work a lot of hours and miss out on a lot of family time. Salary gets capped out after you have been there for awhile.

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
