Pros

Good discount, hard-working outfitters and team leads.

Cons

We were recently told management would be getting mid-year performance reviews due to the high number of GSM's and GM's leaving the company last year. That won't fix the problem. There are problems. The disorganization and lack of communication throughout the company. There's no company mandated training for any position. They seem to think computer training is sufficient. They cut payroll to save money, but the company doesn't realize how much payroll they waste due to outdated equipment and lack of training. You are told to ask questions, but when you ask questions they tell you that you should have known already. This applies to management in the store and corporate employees. So everyone is afraid to ask questions. I've worked for other companies that have sold credit cards. I have never worked for a company that puts as much pressure on you to sell credit cards. Stay clear of companies that make its employees "wear many hats". Chances are you won't receive the support you need.

Pros

Good discount on in house brands

Cons

Toxic management runs rampant at most stores, multiple managers keep their jobs after saying racist or sexist things to both employees or customers. If you’re a good worker they expect you to do the work for your coworkers who are lazy / not doing their job and if you complain you’re the problem. Pay is a joke. Annual raises are never more than $0.20 a year, sometimes as low as $0.07.
