Business Outlook

Pros

- Great pay - Great benefits - Wear jeans

Cons

- High stress job - Expect unreasonable goals and deadlines - Do not expect leadership to be on your side. Cover your butt; document every conversation (when, what, how the conversation went). - If you enter leadership as an external candidate, expect pushback from employees who have been there for a while. You will be tested. - Training will be very brief; take notes, ask questions, and be prepared to hit the floor day one after training as if you are a seasoned pro.
