Pros
The initial hourly pay is competitive. The environment is reasonably clean unless you work receiving shipments. The non-management employees are usually excellent.
Cons
Our corporate management seems to run on a combination of flagrantly disrespectful actions & excessively meaningless repetition of buzz words. On the store level the best I mood I've seen from my co workers in the last year is desperation. The turn over rate is high; it is nearly impossible to be promoted from the inside. There is an intolerable gap between what is said & what is done. Just before our employee reviews we were told that the company was 'raising its standards' so excellent work is now merely passable. This may seem like a point of semantics until one realizes that our raises are calculated on that same scale.
