      Pros

      Ability to merchandise and run store as if personally owned. A wide selection of products and a very good employee discount make this a decent place to work.

      Cons

      High turnover in District Managers. I had four DMs in as many years. Some DMs are highly qualified, and some are not. Company can't seem to make its mind up in who its core customer is, or what products they're going to sell. Stores go through very many major resets multiple times a year creating an overwhelming workload to associates.

      Fun and laughable, however headache inducing.

      Pros

      -One of the best reasons to work here is the employee discount. -At this location the sales associates are very personable. They will help you get through your day.

      Cons

      -Explorer Program is basically forced down your throat. -Extremely poor management. -The pay is basically a joke based on how much you are required to do. -A lot of pressure is put on department heads to basically run the store instead of the Supervisors/GM who get paid to do that. -Hours are also a joke. They hire more people to work, when the ones on staff are screaming, begging and pleading for more hours.
