Pros

Edited review Due to Response The discount is a good percentage Medical Benefits are okay Pay is good at times

Cons

Leadership that claims safety, work life balance, and trust are important but aren't. Your typical "we're a family," its all for show. Leadership that doesn't take accountability, even above a store level. Safety only matters until it effects the bottom line. Incompetent leaders that have their direct reports doing more than they should and taking credit to look good. Whole stores get ruined because district leadership will trust whatever the store leaders say even when there is proof of the contrary. No room to advance unless you are friends with upper management and someone retires or quits. Edited part: Reporting does nothing. When you follow the "right path" and report people you become the next target. 2 people have left for that exact reason. The rest of leadership is being targeted to quit or be fired. The outlet is a sham and so are the people in charge of it. They close ranks and protect the people in the wrong. You send in new management to clean house instead of listening to those that have been here and improving.
