Pros
Free coffee, fountain drinks and slurpees. The sugar or caffeine are the only way to get through a day.
Cons
Store managers are expected to work 6 days a week. No paid holidays for managers, no personal days for managers and since you are required to work 6 days a week, a week's vacation is 7 days off not 9. They have no benefits you must pay for your short and long term disability, AD & D insurance, etc.. You are hired as a manager, but must figure out how to manage a store that is open 24/7 after you spend 8 hours working the register, cleaning, stocking and in some cases cleaning the landscaping and sweeping the parking lot.
Advice to Senior Management
Staff your stores! Don't a hire a manager and expect them to work 8 hours on first shift and then do the job they were hired to do before or after forcing them to work a 12 hour day. This is the reason the stores are dirty, the customer service is bad and the inventory is a mess.
