Pros

If you are looking for a minimum wage job, where you're likely to get yelled at by customers, this is for you!

Cons

Everything depends on the district manager actually being helpful. The GMs are basically told everyday that they aren't doing enough to make sure every team member is trying to manipulate customers into buying things they don't need, signing up for the Speed Perks program, and maximizing the units per transactions. The GMs are overworked, everyone is underpaid and the stores need to get by with the minimum amount of hours to function, which usually leaves 2 employees in store, most of the day.

Pros

Work life balance, nice office in North Hills, unlimited PTO and sometimes they provide lunch

Cons

The pay is not competitive at all. For this to be a Fortune 500 company you would think the pay would be better but honestly this is just a good company to have on your resume, gain the experience for about 6 months to a year and then start applying elsewhere.
