Pros

Foundation Principles, Corporate seems to understand store needs and has same goal, vision and principles as stores. Hiring and training is very thorough.

Cons

Very high expectations; management has too many administrative duties; out side talent brought in when inside talent is more than capable.

Pros

Decent pay for the most part

Cons

No raises, no bonuses, as an IC doing every other department is more important. Lots of forced overtime at the last minute.
