Pros

Good pay, upper management Always helpful and communicative

Cons

Little work/life balance. Though as a manager you almost always only morning, you have to go back in at night 3x a week to literally just change a drawer. Nonstop calls from upper management even on days off

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
