Cons
-Low pay- Associates have a lot of responsibility for the amount they are getting paid. -Not enough appreciation- Associates are rarely appreciated by upper management. -Expecations are ridiculous-You can have a bad day and if uppermanagement comes in they will rip you a new one. -Leadership is crucial component that gets lossed from top managment to front-line staff -Serveant leadership model is good, but not practiced amongst upper management. -Managers are on call 24/7 -Good ol boy network is definately in affect -its not about what you have done...its about what you are going to do for me today and tommorow -Management trainee program has become a joke
