Pros

They pay you every week

Cons

Expect to work 65 to 70 hours per week and that means physical labor on your feet stocking, cleaning, running a register cleaning toilets, sweeping , and mopping the floor cleaning the parking lot taking out trash etc. Oh and by the way you will need to manage every aspect of store ops as well. No thanks will be given, you will never get done with the tasks. You will never catch up. Your pay will average less than 8.00 per hour.

Pros

You have an opportunity to create good good relationships with your customers.

Cons

There is no work life balance. If you’re a store manager you’re expected to be there 24/7 if necessary. You’re also salary, so you’re paid for a flat 40 hours but required to schedule yourself for a minimum of 48 hours. No holiday pay, no overtime. You have access to two types of bonuses but they’re IF you qualify for them. You get little to no support from upper management and constantly told you’re not doing enough. They don’t care if you’re having staffing issues and still expect you to get the truck completely worked in 2 days and the store to be 100% recovered daily, even if you’re alone. Then they’ll either look for ways to write you up to terminate you or push you until you quit.
