Pros

Great customers, getting to know your community.Having some great employees.

Cons

Workload is completely unrealistic.Managers are required to work 48 hours a week, it is impossible to get the required tasks done. Most managers work on average of 60 hours a week.Hourly employees are paid horribly which results in large turn over.

Pros

There are no pros for working for this company. The store manager promotes Key holders within 2 wks of being hired. So theres no training and she rehires employee whom she has fired for theft. If your not kin too her in some way, you wont be there long. In the 7 mos ive been there we have around 10 or more employees come and go.

Cons

The pay is low and the hours that schedule you for isnt enough to live on. Thats why there is a revolving door. If your not kin to store manager you get no perks.
