Pros
*Managers are well versed in "action planning" *You will learn to get rid of "bad Employees" by cutting their hours or making them miserable until they get frustrated and quit. *Assistant Managers can perform "miracles" in their merchandising and such, especially before a corporate store visit. *You will be devoted to your job, who needs work/life balance...Love not having a life outside of work!
Cons
*Company direction constantly changing... *Really great managers are lost to other companies due to being overworked and underpaid while enduring unrealistic expectations. *Too many promotional changes and too much of a focus on robotically repeating promotions to customers that can clearly read the sale signs for themselves. *The expectation to push customers into applying for an Old Navy Credit Card with its ridiculous interest rate. I could go on and on, but I am sure you get the general idea...
