Pros

You might meet some lifelong friends! Long tenure if you are willing to give up everything to try to be a successful employee Good EAP program for short term intensive therapy…

Cons

Public criticism, condescending communication, inconsistent accountability, and fear-based management styles became increasingly common. Feedback often felt reactive rather than constructive, and many employees did not feel psychologically safe speaking openly about concerns. There was also a significant lack of consistency between leaders and stores. Expectations changed constantly, communication was often unclear, and favoritism sometimes impacted accountability and decision-making. Long-term employees who consistently stepped up during difficult periods often felt taken for granted rather than appreciated. Reporting to HR will get you no where. You will be gaslit if you choose to speak up.

Pros

Good job for people who get bored easily of repetitive work Really enjoyed my managers and felt they looked out for my best interest Would recommend the company to others due to the great employee discount and because of the great team I worked with

Cons

It's company policy to be available to work for at least 16 hours on the weekends which can be annoying but management may be willing to accommodate your requests to only work weekdays
