Pros

If you have no life outside of work and never want any time for yourself or family then this is the job for you. The company as a whole may not be a bad company -- however -- every location within a 50 mile radius that I went to were ALL the same.

Cons

You will not receive any time at home. Your family is not allowed to come before this work place. The manager I had, allowed unfair treatment of employees as well as EXTREME unprofessional atmosphere. There were numerous sexual comments made between employees and they were not once repremanded for it. There was drug use in this facility and the manager was known to be a part of it.

Pros

The benefits can be decent, there are growth opportunities, and if you’re lucky, you work with a great team.

Cons

Poor management on many levels. From a store level, extending to corporate, the “leadership” needs work on their people skills. People are only capable of handling so much, and the lack of support from upper management makes it harder to work day to day. Additionally, the goalpost is always moving. If you manage to exceed their expectations, completing those same goals will no longer be good enough. The lack of support when it comes to customer abuse is embarrassing. We’re in 2026 and we should want to support the teams that are keeping the company running. Corporate is out of touch with reality. Anyone making over 6 figures a year no longer view customers as people, but as numbers. It doesn’t matter what horrid stories you hear on a daily basis, they are expected to bend to standards that shouldn’t exist anymore.
