Pros

Great discounts, good training, wonderful managers, a good CEO and exceptional incentives. It was like a family honestly, somewhere I felt very welcome.

Cons

It's a retail job unfortunately, so working weekends and not too many hours due to a larger staff. They could pay a little more than minimum wage, especially for management staff.
