Business outlook
Pros
- A broad variety of requirements from day to day - Animals in the spring and summer - Pet-friendly stores - Associate discount is pretty nice - Easy to pick up experience with a wide berth of products in a relatively short time
Cons
- Brutal and unforgiving corporate management personalities; i.e. former Wal-Mart leadership - Extremely high stress and pressure imposed upon store management, salaried and hourly alike - Almost non-existent official training. When training is delivered, it is only mildly useful - Low pay, low bonuses - Long, highly physical work hours. It is normal for salaried management to work 60+ hours in a week with no reward or basic acknowledgement for extra contributions to store operations
