Pros

Good starting salary as assistant manager (but only if experienced or in the college recruiting program), because of the leadership vacuum that exists at the company, you can be promoted quickly to a store manager, especially if you are willing to relocate.

Cons

Long long hours, very little recognition or appreciation, toxic and highly negative environment, culture of fear and intimidation, few benefits, very little appreciation for work/life balance, low morale, terrible communication between corporate and stores, managers and employees, etc., no clear leadership, no clear plan for the future, very little positive reinforcement

Pros

Good team and good compensation

Cons

The contract is only for 30 days, so it needs to be renewed every month, and we always lose access during the process. This creates some uncertainty for us.
