Pros

Employee discount, some friendly employees.

Cons

Hostile & Threatening Management with disregard to ADA compliance. Management encourages "schoolyard bullying" mentality, meaning that when management treats subordinates as commodities rather than human beings, the entire team is co-opted to engage in the same reprehensible behavior. In the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM IV), the highest managers display traits synonymous with psychopathy. Management claims a healthy "work to life" balance, however employees are working from home as late as 4 AM. Sacrificing the needs of their families. This opinion is coming from a former manger.

Pros

Could manage the business as I saw fit as through the lens of a business owner

Cons

Training was minimal and in a location very different than my future store. Staff I inherited was horrible and leadership was not transparent about the status of the store in regards to profitability and issues within the store or company for that matter. Company declared bankruptcy about 5 months after I started and closed my location. Not a great experience.
