Pros

Easy job, free snacks, discounts on product.

Cons

No feedback from leadership. ZERO leadership presence on the floor. Zero gratification from the actual work. Your basically an operator taking messages and orders all day. Mind numbingly boring job that makes time seemingly go backwards. You are forced to go to the downtown location half of your first 2 days and have to pay for parking to be shown something that should easily be done at the home location.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
