Pros

Leadership cares only about maintaining status quo and building their own fiefdoms so as long as you don't challenge that, you probably won't have to do much work. So if you like work/life balance -- and by balance, I mean barely doing any work, then it's great. Also, they espouse values of equality publicly, even if they don't abide by them in practice.

Cons

See above. Also: - There are complaints about leadership in virtually every department. - There is a TOXIC culture here that is enforced through non-transparent leadership practices, an over preoccupation with inter-office politics and leadership and management who are insecure (and may not even be strong leaders or even experts in their own subject matter) - Many people vocalized needing to start seeing a therapist in order to maintain the stress brought on by leaders who feel threatened either by evolving business landscape or internal politics or younger (and often more talented) personnel

Pros

Hourly rate is decent and pays weekly

Cons

Managers think they are above everyone even when they have as much potential as a goldfish in life. We are pushed to get customers to sign up for a store credit card which is one of the worst credit cards I’ve seen. Your worth at this company is dependent on how many credit cards you can get which is so dehumanizing. Horrible culture and company to work for.
