Pros

I had an awesome boss who usually tried to accommodate school and life as best she could for all her employees.

Cons

There's only a tiny margin for raises, and getting a promotion, depending on the owners is really sketchy. It took over a year before they would clear the store manager of one store to train one of her employees as an assistant manager.

Pros

Very flexible scheduling, especially if your manager is willing to work around all their employees. You usually get a 50% discount that you can use once a day too.

Cons

Direct district management at this location does not know how to manage people. He will not really do anything to help or assist until his supervisors look into his stores and what he does. He will shift blame onto any general manager he can, and if any district manager decides you are doing your job incorrectly or you need to adjust what you are doing, there will be little to no support in helping you become a better employee. It really can become a "popularity contest" when you work in store management. If you are a regular employee or shift lead, you won't really have any direct contact with district management.
