Business outlook
Pros
Lots of leadership experience received working as part of the management team. Lots of experience with merchandising, multi-tasking, and customer interaction. Plenty of opportunities for a recent college graduate to get leadership experience and advance their career in store management. Lots of different employees come from various backgrounds so you'll have a chance to get to know a more diverse group of people.
Cons
You have to work odd hours, morning shift one day, night shift another day, graveyard shift if you're working at a 24 hour store. Lots of manual labor involved, even for the management team. Pay is not as high compared to larger retail establishments.
