Pros

Generous Employee discount Communication Patterned schedule for Leaders/Managers

Cons

Low labor hours for low/mid volume locations for amount of work/s scheduling expectations. Low pay rate for this position compared to GM position when workload/responsibilities/expectations are much higher than GM. Company expectations not realistic for all volume stores, which frustrates part time staff, hourly leaders to be able to get expected work done plus help customers. . Company does not value efforts and work done by Visual and Operations members of the business. Bonus amount is very low. Yearly raises are minimal. Health plans were awful for the price paid. Constantly contacted during time off about work issues and questions, when General Manager and Full Time leaders were working and could handle issues. New CEO and senior Management team has gotten away from what made the company a great place to work for, company getting away from its core values. The principles are just words now, not what’s lived by the company as they were in the past

Pros

They make it as fun as they can. Decent team environment. Employee Appreciate Day is fun. Insurance is offered even for part time employees.

Cons

Truck day is physically taxing and hard; everyone is expected to work on that day. Expectations are high. Full time employees are leaders for the part timers.
