Pros

The pay is competitive and the extra on weekends is great. The yearly Christmas bonus was nice as well! You learn a lot about basic home repair, so it's a good job for college students.

Cons

Inefficient management structure and the points system is incredibly restrictive. Very easy to rise in the ranks which sometimes made for managers who should have had more training. Managers will sacrifice any of their subordinates' hours due to constant payroll cuts, and will do anything to get their bonuses. Like it or not (I don't like it!) the main incentive for management is their bonuses, so when corporate threatens that, they'll do anything to keep it even if the action hurts the store overall.

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.
