Worse company ever

Pros

Free goods, discounts, a chance to work for “one of the best” (so they say) house, you’ll be a master in PowerPoint slides and story telling

Cons

Politics, full of woman who think they are smart, a lot of dumb people who just know how to talk, all talk no action. Hire the wrong people and fire the right ones.

Pros

Good benefits - such as amount of vacation time. Healthcare good Contributes up to 6% match in 401k For the most part, other employees also do their part to make store goals Very diverse company

Cons

Depending on store/manager using vacation time can be difficult Bonus for back of house continuously changes and has decreased since starting with the company only 4 years ago Can take a long time to advance in company as management don’t encourage growth
