Over worked and under paid.

Pros

The benefits are wonderful, the environment is laid back. That is really the only two good things about working in this sector of this company.

Cons

The micro - managing is extreme at these stores. They are poorly run, poorly managed and it seems they are set up for failure. The workload that an average employee is responsible for is by no way compensated in their wages. One of the worst places I have worked. It's a popularity contest if you want to grow in the company not at all based on merit or seniority. They rarely hire internally and offer no incentive to work hard. The culture is also juvenile at best. Just poor.

Pros

Still banking on the reputation built by Bill Gates. Current leadership team is a bigger mess than before.

Cons

Company has moved from bad leadership to no leadership. SN is not a good leader after all, 6 months into his reign.
