Pros

people made us smile mgrs well another story ..

Cons

truck shipments too large ..backroom and sales floor too small for what they send and if mgrs actually worked on the floor and not just in the office or expect the team to do all their work it would be a better place...giving asm and other key members a bonus like they do the mgrs..would actually be nice since we were doing the work in displaying the products selling the products to the customers while the so-called mgr sits in the back on her duff not doing a darn thing ....yeah it's true the mgr i had coul not even merchandise her own store without my help...and she gets paid the big bucks...wow

Pros

This was a good job with some great aspects from a professional view. The work was straightforward and by the book for the most part.

Cons

Unfortunately, at the time of my employment, there was a weird culture in the store which was being fostered by someone who I understand has been let go now. I was not comfortable continuing at this place once this person became my boss.

Pros

There are no pros for working for this company. The store manager promotes Key holders within 2 wks of being hired. So theres no training and she rehires employee whom she has fired for theft. If your not kin too her in some way, you wont be there long. In the 7 mos ive been there we have around 10 or more employees come and go.

Cons

The pay is low and the hours that schedule you for isnt enough to live on. Thats why there is a revolving door. If your not kin to store manager you get no perks.
