Pros
Good pay. Good benefits. A lot of good people who try and work hard. Great experience with international business and shipping.
Cons
Senior management is blind to employee growth. Severe micro management culture in operations and buying. Not the place for new ideas unless they come from vice presidents or COO who is never wrong.

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at PriceSmart full-time for less than a year
Pros
Lots to learn. Interesting projects in retail and international business. Nice coworkers. Good medical benefits. Rarely have to stay late. Somewhat flexible hours.
Cons
All the little things every day that show PriceSmart doesn't care about you: Upper management avoids eye contact and won't even say good morning. Pay is low and no merit raises or bonuses. Free food is rare. The building is worn out and falling apart. You will be moved around without notice. Not much room to grow-you will be told 'no growth in your first five years'. Serious lack of communication from the higher ups. There is no team feeling-everything is department vs. department. Too many burned out long term employees. Management is old fashioned. Heavy traffic.

Pros
Strong company focos on accomplishing goals, a good company for those who are executors, not for innovators. Got to be a good yes man and a follower not a líder.
Cons
Not a good communication, support or coaching for new employees. Hard to get in the companies culture, most procedures are not written so they relay in people's memories.
