Pros
While the training lacked structure and support, it forced me to become more self-reliant and proactive. I now have a clearer sense of what kind of leadership and workplace culture I need to thrive — and what red flags to look out for in future roles. It was a tough experience, but one that ultimately helped me grow.
Cons
My experience with this company was nothing short of disappointing. From day one, it was clear that organization and structure were not priorities. Training was chaotic and overwhelming—crammed into a two-week period with multiple trainers pushing conflicting information, making it nearly impossible to retain anything meaningful. Instead of hands-on learning, much of my time was wasted standing around in the store with no direction. The 10-hour shifts, five days a week, felt excessive, especially considering the poor compensation. It was physically and mentally draining, with very little to show for it. The management added to the frustration. My manager made promises about showing me expectations and offering support, but those promises were rarely kept. He’d schedule times to meet and then show up late, leave abruptly, or not return at all. It felt like I was left to figure things out on my own with no real guidance or leadership. Overall, this company lacks the structure, support, and respect that employees need to succeed. I would not recommend it to anyone looking for a stable and supportive work environment.
