Pros

Cons
Some managers, store directors, and corporate persons at the company act like they are hot stuff when in reality; they work at a grocery store. Pay for entry-level persons in the department should be higher Pay in general at retail is not good and is laughable Depending on your work location, management at the store can be very unsupportive and uncaring about the AP department in general. They will act like your job doesn't matter until it is convenient for them to think otherwise. This also goes for management at the corporate level. This makes it difficult to not get burned out without being a self-motivated individual. Depending on the location, store management can be unprofessional and toxic. Some managers will actually yell at and belittle employees when they are upset. Or they may start yelling at you about something that is not within your control. This is likely a result of many managers and store directors not being educated. Unethical leadership. Weekend shifts.
