Pros

Good co-workers, casual attire, flexibility of schedule, decent compensation.

Cons

Senior managers are a joke, LGM's have no backbone, strong Good Ole Boy network which is the only way to get ahead. Central & Nashville regions are inept & I can't decide on which one is worse. Come to think of it, it is probably the Nashville region because the regionals will visit your store and rarely utter a word to the team.
