Pros

If you like being stressed at work and at home then this company is for you.

Cons

This company lies to every person in the store and those that run the stores directly. Pay has been questionable since the start, never knowing how much you'll be paid on your check. For Management, shrink is taken from your pay which is illegal in some states. Was told to be quiet when raising questions about how my pay was being taken from me. Not our fault people in the world steal from the stores. Store Managers: work 6-7 days a week open to close. 8AM video meeting for goals, 11AM meeting on plan to make daily goal, 2PM meeting on why the store is not meeting the outrageous unobtainable goals set, 5PM meeting on getting the stores act together or find another job. Must sell to customers to get paid which takes commissions from Sales Reps and Assistant Managers. Minimum sales required to get paid what little pay they do give. Assistant Managers: Make less the sales reps but work like them with shrink taken from their pay too. Sales Reps: Lie to your customers enough to make the commission structure actually pay you our enough. Not enough sales reps to cover the sales floor. I saw a screenshot text thread of another Store Manager asking Upper Management for time off to go see their father in the hospital. The screenshot text thread was emailed out to the entire company as an example of how NOT to be a good Store Manager. Didn't see this store manager on our meeting calls anymore, I assume he does not work for the company. Disrespectful and grossly overstepping personal boundaries between Store Management to Upper Management. Bottom line, work elsewhere. False promises and unobtainable goals make this a failing career. If you like a happy life and not take work problems home, steer clear.

Pros

None whatsoever. Zero. Absolutely terrible company

Cons

I have worked at this store for over five years and how do they treat me? They destroyed the commission structure to benefit the big boys at the top which translates to a loss of over $1,000 a month! In the past few months I have had three different managers because no one wants to address their legitimate grievances and they just quit. Same with reps. The turnover rate is abysmal. Does BLW care? Not at all. They're more than content to staff their district with a skeleton crew. I've worked more days completely alone than I can count. All so the company can "save money." Despicable company. You can reasonably guess who this is, Phil. Your yokel antics and subservience to Saad the California conman are a joke. Hope you enjoy me showing up to suck down a paycheck while making zero effort to upsell and earn you people money when you do nothing but take from your workers. Enjoy your failing business.
