Pros
Store culture really depends on DM, SM, and management in store. Was great when first started. Really listened to employees, openess to new processes, even RM communicated with employees. Greay discount, pay, and work life balance.
Cons
Things in corporate are changing and its trickling down and affecting stores. DM at time of departure was disengaged and didnt care about stores not close to him/her. Advancement opportunity not fair at all...DM wont even interview to see skillset and will only go off of feedback. Need to get to know Associate Managers (future leaders if stores) and put more time into their development. Opinion really does rely on who is running district. Some higher ups just not meant for position they hold. No feeling of pride in history and heritage. Lack of passion within employees...higher ups, managers, and associates
