      Great tasting Kool-Aid with an absolutely horrid aftertaste.

      Pros

      The best employee discount I have ever ever heard of. The discount even applies to gift cards. This to me was reason enough to work here.

      Cons

      Well, I wish I could say I loved it, but sadly I had a manager I did not get along with, a supervisor I really butted heads with and a district manager that continued to hold my hourly wage over my head.

      When they want you out, you're out.

      Pros

      Casual dress code. Great co-workers pre-screened by strenuous hiring practices.

      Cons

      I worked there part-time for over 7 years and my ending salary was $11.24/hr, but the store discount made up for it. Every year you have to fill out an extensive review form and meet with your manager. This time, instead of a 30 minute review it lasted 4 hours! After 7 years of positive reviews, I was raked over the coals. Shortly before Christmas I became ill and they gave me a 30-day leave. Toward the end of the leave I called and asked for an extension. I was told to show up the next day for my shift or resign. We don't have a union, and the company is proud of their 'employee first' philosophy. But when they're finished with you they WILL find a way to push you out. Kip and Garrett started a great company. I feel bad for them.
