Pros

Promote mostly and almost completely from within. If you work hard and stand out it will pay off. Very ethical company from what I have seen and they honestly want everyone to succeed and move up in the company!

Cons

Long hours and work weekends often when you are in the retail side of it for the first few years.

Pros

Leadership training, flexible schedule if your store has the necessary staffing, 401k match

Cons

If you don't have staffing then you are required to work weekends consistently, Sales calls requirements keep getting higher and higher, incompetent corporate leadership. Pay is based on 44 hours worked weekly for assistants(48 for Store managers; leaves room for less work/life balance
