Pros

Trying to develop teams to grow. Giving people a chance to shine in their roles. A lot of these folks live in poverty so development can assist life changes to better themselves to move onto another employer.

Cons

To much work for the store level staff to please upper management.The Store Manager gets all the wage an still is below what other companies pay. The other staff get crumbs and are not motivated in a lot of cases to grow because it is not really possible.
