Pros

There is none you want to get somewhere don't choose b&m there supervisors are useless come in most of the time drunk or high.

Cons

Management have no idea what there doing the staff you work with get away with everything including taking breaks every 10 mins your wages are never right and have to chase them over and over again. There's no stability no direction and the ones who get rewarded are the ones who do nothing just look busy, there's no discipline in the stores is like working in a playground. I've worked in retail for 17 years and this is by far the worst place ever.
