Pros

You get to work with good people. As in any box store there is drama, but they are good people none the less.

Cons

Corporate Leadership is a joke. DM has been employed by the company around 2 years but has actually been "out of the business" for 75% of that time. I believe the Zone Admin who hired the DM is under scrutiny so the DM has something to prove, using their Store Managers as scapegoats. My "Scorecard" had one red strike and 14 green...but they hounded me on the one red one that couldn't be fixed because of a store specific "broken" process...No help from Corp, or my TRIAD partners. My ALPM's were great, just the constant DM leadership and guidance fell away with the DM being "out of the business" and our store being "supplemented" by visiting DM's to fill a vacant or missing spot..

Pros

Quick and easy onboarding and training

Cons

Lack of communication between management. It was obvious one manager works harder than the other and there is racial divide in the store,
