Pros

Great incentive to stick around with annual bonuses that increase quickly and decent manager bonuses.

Cons

Crappy insurance, crappy wages, good 'old boy system, poor management left over from pioneer days of company, really poor newer management with entirely too much confidence in them.

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
