Pros

The learning lounges were a gold mine of information and i liked that it tested your knowledge and you could print out job aids.

Cons

I was suppose to transfer to another store that was closer to my house. The manager said everything was good and had taken me off the schedule. When i called the transfer store they didn't know what I was talking about and told me to put in an application. ???? So i did, and the manager from the alabaster store said she would talk/send email to the GM and to the other managers telling them i am to transfer. I couldn't get anyone to talk to me for 2 weeks. Suddenly I get an email stating that they were seeking other candidates...and I was out of a job....seriously messed up.

Pros

Travel to different store locations. On travel that requires a hotel meals are covered up to $80 a day. Mileage is reimbursed outside of 20miles from home and back.

Cons

You're required to have a car and it puts alot of strain on it and your body. You could be gone from home anywhere from a few days to a few months. Changes are very last minute.
