Fun atmosphere, always about having a good time with both team members and customers, bonus opportunities for both full and part time employees, great work/life balance, great discount, constantly new and exciting

Cons

Difficult remaining consistent with new brand evolution, constant changes in upper field management, change their minds about policies quickly, brand is rapidly expanding creating a lot of ambiguity in your work, subjective development plans for leadership.

Pros

Very black & white on policies. You always know what is right or wrong.Operationally strong company that allows movement between brands. Decent pay if you advocate for yourself as an external, but don’t expect much once you’re in.

Cons

Company has changed direction so much since COVID. Seems like there’s no clear idea on who we are anymore.Senior leadership feels like a revolving door that only succeeds in spinning tires with no traction. We love to initiate something only to either sunset it months later or leave it in limbo(WellPro). The amount of stress pushed on stores to meet credit goals is absurd to the point it inspires unethical behaviors in certain stores.
