Pros

Pay is good for the retail industry.

Cons

It is a Stepford environment, and the 'training' program feels more like indoctrination.

Pros

Decent pay for the most part

Cons

No raises, no bonuses, as an IC doing every other department is more important. Lots of forced overtime at the last minute.
