Pros

Internal data, report and training systems are far beyond most other retailers. Company provides resources that allow associates at all levels to have access to virtually any information they could want or need.

Cons

Not enough payroll, way too much expected of most positions in most stores. Most associates have the expectations of a manager level job but could make more flipping burgers. Plenty of great ideas with horrible implementation.

Pros

Good team and good compensation

Cons

The contract is only for 30 days, so it needs to be renewed every month, and we always lose access during the process. This creates some uncertainty for us.

Pros

great people, easy to make friends, lots of variety of work. Training on how to bulid rapport with customers.

Cons

Direct reports require a certain amount of sales without offering any ways of measuring effort. Favorites are played by management.
