Pros

Associates are nice to work with

Cons

There is absolutely no work/life balance even though that is stressed so much in the interview. The district manager for south Florida has management skills that are as ancient as a dinosaur. He speaks out of both sides of his mouth and allows store managers to treat their associates however they choose. The store managers will work you to death if you are on salary and the DM will tell you however long it takes to get the job done is what is required
