      Pros

      Competitive wages, great co-workers, opportunities to learn

      It's been a corporation on the downside of the mountain since it merged with Sears in 2005. Not enough attention was paid to the infrastructure.

      Advice to Management

      While I believe this is comment comes much to late to be of any use, management needed to realize its greatest resource was the people working for it but primarily the relationship it had with its customers.
