Pros

Work attire is free. Good vacation time. Store is closed some holidays. Gain floating holiday for working during open holidays. $2 free every pay check for work shoes. Great 104k and health insurance. Above minimum wage hourly pay.

Cons

Random schedule every week. Work all shifts at random: Open Shift 6am to 2pm. Mid Shift from 11am to 7pm. Closing shift from 2pm to 10pm. Required to work cash register, stock shelves, clean store, customer service, and inventory.

Pros

The pay and benefits are very strong for the field. Company car, credit card, good salary, and fair benefits are certainly a pro.

Cons

I would highly advise against taking this job out of school. For a company that has so many great things going on, they really do not do a good job focusing on their people. There are so many unhappy people working at this company, and I always wondered if upper management was aware of the unhappiness at the store level.

Pros

The job pays very well and you get a company car.

Cons

The training process is basically a weed out process. You will work about 60 hours a week doing physical labor for the first 6 months. The hours will be mornings as early as 5 am and nights as late as 2 am. Expect to work every weekend and you probably won't be able to use any of your vacation time during training. All the training is done very hastily and unorganized and there is no evidence they want you to succeed. They will put you wherever they need you and do not care what city you want t work in.
