Pros

Being able to use floaters 30 day before or 30 day after the particular holiday Paid holidays Benefits were good Also Manager conference in Orlando was fun learned a lot but once you get back to reality they ( leadership team) forgets what the whole mission was about.

Cons

SGM and CSM wants to micromanage you. Paid once a month . No over time. Won't get bonus if you leave before the end of the year Won't acknowledge your hard word. Will only bring up what you did wrong. They expect you to work well over 55 hrs without telling you directly. Doesn't treat Sales associate fairly. Room for promotion is limited since majority of the people have been working there for 10+ years. I tried to move to a different city to better my chances but my SGM held me there and did not allow me to transfer. A lot of politics go into play. For those graduating college DO NOT JOIN THE CAREER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM. It's a TRAP. The people in charge of the program are nice, I have nothing but respect towards them but since they were located at the corporate office hey don't see how things are actually run at the store or by SGM. Unless you are trying to waste your time or desperate don't waste your time.

Pros

- Education benefits (but access/support depends on your manager) - Flexible workplace (work hours/wfh) - Diverse workforce.

Cons

- Does not support employee promotions. Very difficult to get promoted if you are not an engineer. - Low pay, salary increases depend on manager. For the past couple years, most employees did not even receive adjustment for inflation. - Constantly loses top talent because management is unwilling to invest to keep good employees.
