Pros

None, hours are terrible and you’re expected to finish an entire work week of work in 5 hours, there isn’t any full time and they cut hours and think you can live with that! THERE IS NO HEAT AND THEY DONT CARE BECAUSE THEY WILL DO ANYTHING TO CUT COSTS AT THE EXPENSE OF THE EMPLOYEES!

Cons

Customers are constantly concerned that there is only one person working which is a big safety issue and corporate doesn’t care! If you have to go to the bathroom forget it they expect you to stay at the register! This company is a joke.

Pros

You have an opportunity to create good good relationships with your customers.

Cons

There is no work life balance. If you’re a store manager you’re expected to be there 24/7 if necessary. You’re also salary, so you’re paid for a flat 40 hours but required to schedule yourself for a minimum of 48 hours. No holiday pay, no overtime. You have access to two types of bonuses but they’re IF you qualify for them. You get little to no support from upper management and constantly told you’re not doing enough. They don’t care if you’re having staffing issues and still expect you to get the truck completely worked in 2 days and the store to be 100% recovered daily, even if you’re alone. Then they’ll either look for ways to write you up to terminate you or push you until you quit.
