Pros

There are very few! I think training was the best part. At least you were treated with dignity while on it.

Cons

The lack of standards and professionalism is astounding at this job!!! This company does the traditional bait and switch. On paper and in training, they promise you all kinds of benefits, and when you get to the floor you realize all the hoops you have to jump through to receive it. You are micromanaged ,unprofessionally in front of others, from the moment you hit the floor, and on top of that you have to put up with the charged sales floor of people who are fighting over scraps. They contact you telling you they believe in family, but then you realize it’s their version of a conservative family. They’re sexist and believe women can do certain things and men not and and vise versa. When you seek fairness they tell you those are the rules. My sales floor had two brown Latin people on it, and no African Americans. My store was charged with a male chauvinist and unwelcoming environment for any other class. If you’re of a protected class don’t expect this company to accommodate you instead you will be bullied until you’re so uncomfortable you quit! That is how they work! Worst job I’ve ever had!!!

Pros

Work life balance, hard work recognized, and some of the best management I've ever worked with. Bonuses if you work hard. Great workflow and everyone is always doing their best. Looking forward to a long career here. I thank God everyday for my job and coworkers.

Cons

Not much. Great place in general.

Pros

2020 and maybe 21,22 were good after it all went down hill (thanks to AH )

Cons

Everyone is related , friends , family etc. HR is all friends with eveyone there for you cannot be taken serious . So many talented associates leave because they are forced out due to personal preference. Turn over company wide they say is low. However the location I worked in 80 precent of people were 6 month or under ! Yikes !!! Management does not know how to keep and lead their team , instead they micro manage , make up new rules that they do not follow after a few weeks and they always seem stressed. Oh and bonus program is constantly restructured . They present it as new opportunities however it’s really for them to pay less. This company always pays very low percentage and you have to jump through hoops that are on fire to make a bonus. And I wasn’t some employee who worked 6 months and quit. I was someone making 90k yearly for several years. This is just a reality. Higher management needs traning asap. And insurance gets worse every year !
