Pros

It isnt that hard to get promoted within your current store or to one that is still fairly close. They have enough store close together for that.

Cons

The upper managent at each store has to hound their dept managers because of the higher ups at the general office. They dont care about the well being of the employees, they just want to get sales. If a store isnt making its projections, it is of course the dept managers fault. No reseach is done to figure out the real reason.

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
