Pros
The assistant store manager pay scale is respectable , and well above respectable when you consider it’s retail.
Cons
Everything else. - zero work life balance (10-12 hr days, every day) - 4th quarter of the year they work you like a dog - never enough payroll to staff the store and complete any tasks -customers are god awful and treat the store like it’s their trash can -predatory selling of a high interest credit card is required and don’t let your store not hit its goal. Your DM that is 20 years removed from the store itself and detached from reality comes down hard -no work life balance at all -no thanksgiving or Christmas with families if you don’t live in the same city as your family. -only thing the company cares about is selling credit, staying under your labor budget and meeting sales
