Pros

You are able to build good working relationships with your peer store managers

Cons

There is NO work/life balance despite what they say. Remember, most of their recruiters work from home and none have not worked as a store manager. Advancement opportunities are for the select political few. The hour allowance for their stores will require you to be alone in the building from time to time. You will likely always be short hourly associates because of the less than industry average they pay them. Guess who will have to fill in the gap. That’s right, You.
