Pros

Not many pros if any. #MadeInChina

Cons

Muzak music same 10 songs chain wide all listening to the same songs.. Everything goes through Email, you do not run a store, corporate does through constant emails, except for weekends, which they take off.. You however, will get what feels like ZERO TIME OFF.. Family? TOO BAD!! They waste the most paper, millions of dollars a year in colored paper.. they need to move into this century.. Everything is MADE IN CHINA!! and requires a sticker (since California based) to inform that 90% of what they carry causes cancer.
