Pros

Pay is decent, but not as great as it should be. Nothing around my area pays even close. Time off is usually pretty easy to get. Especially if you have a manager willing to work with you. Major holidays off with an extra day off in the week. Sunday’s off. Life insurance is cheap and some of the benefits are really great. Employee purchase program.

Cons

Work load can be hefty at times, expectations can be unreachable at times as well. For yearly raises…. They could be better. The opportunity to grow isn’t really there. Or maybe I’m just in the shadow of my manager. Dental and vision suck. The employee purchase program could be better. There’s a mark up for putting things on rent and I definitely feel that could be lower.

Pros

The benefits can be decent, there are growth opportunities, and if you’re lucky, you work with a great team.

Cons

Poor management on many levels. From a store level, extending to corporate, the “leadership” needs work on their people skills. People are only capable of handling so much, and the lack of support from upper management makes it harder to work day to day. Additionally, the goalpost is always moving. If you manage to exceed their expectations, completing those same goals will no longer be good enough. The lack of support when it comes to customer abuse is embarrassing. We’re in 2026 and we should want to support the teams that are keeping the company running. Corporate is out of touch with reality. Anyone making over 6 figures a year no longer view customers as people, but as numbers. It doesn’t matter what horrid stories you hear on a daily basis, they are expected to bend to standards that shouldn’t exist anymore.
