Pros

Good Benefits Company Car Ok Insurance Free Gas

Cons

Directors do not lead by example. They definitely have forgotten about the bottom line. Never is enough. There is a roll out of something all the time. No time to take it all in. No work/life balance 12-15 hr days, should I say more? A lot of politics play into account to get promoted. Kind of a very secretive place to work for. You have to work one weekend per month. Very little feedback to the DM's and appreciation from their Director.

Pros

The benefits and pay are some of the best in the industry. The opportunity for advancement is there, as there are many training programs for management positions within the company. Employees are given a very high level of responsibility for entry-level positions and are often left to make day-to-day decisions on their own or with little guidance.

Cons

The company expects a lot out of its employees. In my experience, it is hard to get fired from here once you're in the door. This is unfortunate because it can mean managers that don't know how to do their job but won't get fired because they haven't broken any major policies within the company. Depending on the specific store, promotions to shift manager can be nearly impossible with veteran staff.
