Pros

- Benefits and pay - Pretty good co-workers - My team was remote - Easy interview

Cons

- Lack of stability, I had 6 managers in 3 years - Lots of responsibilities with little support and compitent managers, lead to burn out that I'm still recovering from - Job description was very different than what I worked on - Poor leadership and organization, constantly having rug pulled out under us - All the annoying corporate things - Much work being offshored to India, management was boasting about the new India Hub while the US corporate office was experiencing Layoffs, people were nice enough but different timezones made cross team collaboration painful - Constantly changing priorieties - Very few promotions after 2022, was "exceeding expectations" for 3 years, going well above my grade level, with no promotion granted (kept saying it was coming)

Pros

Flexible hours, employee perks such as discounted products, offers 401(k) despite being part-time, coworkers who are nice to work with.

Cons

Management is quick to call-out sales that have nothing attached to it (warranties, card applications, memberships, or accessories). There is a rodent problem that has not been addressed for nearly a year; food and beverages cannot be sold at this store.
