Pros

Nice people that work within.

Cons

not enough payroll hours, long hours for managers, big heads come in all the time with changes after they already required change yesterday, no time to catch up on freight, no time to get the store to its cleanliness that the regionals would like for it to be, no respect from upper management outside of the store.
