Pros

Awesome pay and benefits.You will be financially set if you are in management.

Cons

You sell your soul to your store.The workload can cause staff moral issues.The expectations are unrealistic.Associates have 30 minuets to stock pallets of merchandise stacked 6 feet tall.This causes some to start working unsafe damaging store fixtures or/and themselves and also causes merchandise rotation issues as they rush to stock the shelves.

Pros

Huge amount of responsibility Free rain to run your store the way you want (to a degree) Directors & MD knows you by name Massive salary in return for the work you put in

Cons

Little to no support from AM’s once the going gets tough, you just expected to deal with it or ‘manage the situation’ and then your performance managed by your AM for your management. There is a very evident ‘blame’ culture AM’s with minimal people management skills Work/Life balance is non existent Responsible for your store even during times of annual leave.

Pros

The benefits are great, & keep me there longer than I felt welcome.

Cons

No diversity on store management level ( depending on demographics) Upstate S.C. Poor communication from upper management to MT's & below. If you're an African American in this area in management don't expect to EVER have your own store. It's never happened, although I pray it does.
