Business Outlook

Pros

It was a very friendly atmosphere and work around. corporate, very seldom came around. leaving store managers and assistant managers to. perform their duties unrestricted.

Cons

They kept hiring family. which never makes for a good work environment for the people around them. Tippy toeing around. whether or not the associate was related to somebody.
