Pros

There are few great people and seeing dogs at work makes the atmosphere bearable. In theory it's a wonderful place.

Cons

It's difficult to get a promotion. Only a few get paid well and insurance is expensive. If you have a bad or difficult manager it can ruin your entire career.

Pros

If you have experience they can pay very well considering the size of the company. Depending on which store you are in, they can be pretty good at fostering a good environment and culture.

Cons

Company is primarily focused on sales and not customer experience. So expect a lot of metrics and hounding customers. Company is trying to be technologically forward but continues to neglect to invest in the technology. So there’s updates every week crashes every week with no communication around it.
