Pros

Benefits for now but they will change soon. Uniforms provided, lunch is 3 but tastes horrible. Bi-weekly pay and PTO when they approve it.

Cons

Restructuring of the company was a bad idea. Lost great managers in the process. Company has turned into the typical greedy American company. Mark my word more cuts will come A Union needs to be formed to protect co workers. Do more with less. The worst customer centric company. Even less consideration for associates. Field office associates clue less to what actually happens in the stores. Turn over is sure to triple or more soon.

Pros

Good work environment Pay is good Job keeps you busy

Cons

Lack of communication with leadership and coworkers. Leadership seems to have favorites Schedule takes too long to make Seems that there's people who would like the be full time or part time that are temporary right now aren't getting the positions. Feels like nepotism but maybe I'm wrong. Getting responses like you didn't get the job because you didn't answer your interview questions right just seems unnecessary The amount of drama happening is getting out of hand and leadership doesn't seem to care
