Pros

Great values and employee emphasis for deserving candidates. My management team has been great at giving me the resources to advance. (Went from F3 to department head and hopefully further) I love working there, everyday is new and challenging, albeit changing merchandise for upcoming holidays, to helping customers with the T.R.E.A.T program that has lead me to receive the customer service of the quarter for Jerry Ballard's district and the positive reinforcement has been a motivation tool to work for the culture of the company and develop new associates to achieve the mission of the company.

Cons

The 32 point system can allow for underdeveloped, nonessential and unwilling to take to the culture a negative impact that can affect the productivity of other employees. Not everyone loves their job (due to the relatively small increments in pay) or lack of the need to work. Many young, disposable employees that come and go. Can waste up to three days training a new hire to just quit because 5am is too early to come in to work.
