Pros

The job is predictable due to the weekly store mail that gives specific daily tasks to be completed, the pay is acceptable, the benefits aren't bad. Job security in this financial time is pretty good.

Cons

Long hours, constantly changing work hours allowed each week, no individuality (not always a bad thing either). Always feeling like "Big Brother" is watching my every move.

Pros

There are no pros for working for this company. The store manager promotes Key holders within 2 wks of being hired. So theres no training and she rehires employee whom she has fired for theft. If your not kin too her in some way, you wont be there long. In the 7 mos ive been there we have around 10 or more employees come and go.

Cons

The pay is low and the hours that schedule you for isnt enough to live on. Thats why there is a revolving door. If your not kin to store manager you get no perks.
