Pros

2.50 more hr on weekends Great department level managers Great people. (Team members) Opportunity for advancement Great IHT program Promote from within Yearly manager seminars Would be great concept if done as its payed out

Cons

GM level managers , very inconsistent , totally play favorites ( I should know I'm one of them) still not right. GM level managers constantly undermining dept managers authority, to the point that some long term employees do as they please and don't answer to dept level managers they just do as they please then go to GM to overturn any punishment GM allow dept manager to manage as long as it's there way however you have several different GM level managers all with different ways Company doesn't support the managers as most company's there treated by the GMs the same as a part time employee, and are dismissed just as quickly

Pros

Good pay. Most coworkers are excellent to work with.

Cons

Scheduling is horrible. Work til 10 pm and have to be back in at 6 am. Store management plays favorites and talks smack about non favorites and Promotes accordingly Doesnt recognize Team memebers for jobs well done. Belittling. Unprofessional.
