Pros

You get to know really great store managers, if you work hard you will get promoted easily, and the IOM perks are great.

Cons

When you make your store sales, you get bonuses. However, you have to make 10 times the quota amount in order to receive a good bonus. If you don't get your customers to buy you don't make bonuses. Every year they expect you to go above your LY quota an extremely high amount even though the economy sucks right now. They don't care if people are spending or not. They expect us to con people into spending their money in our stores. Not only that, they place the stores too close together to make it harder for each store to make their marks too. The people under HO are greedy and unfair.
