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.

Pros

You could have good team. Maybe.

Cons

Corporate and the upper management (Regional Management and up) are constantly changing how you do your job. They tell you the job is simple, rent and collect, but don't explain about the other million small tasks they expect. That isn't counting the new tasks they throw at you every week or two. Some stores only get one delivery person, so even if you're a sales manager or a credit manager, you'll be stuck doing deliveries and then talked down to for not being able to do your actual job at the same time.
