Pros

Free lunch daily, get 40 hours a week, great line employees. Over all the flow is good and the job is easy to maintain with all of the protocols in place.

Cons

The pay isn't high enough, the lack of communication from DMs and RMs to management is bad. The biggest part is that there are no benefits and the likelihood of making it past a manager position is slim to none.

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.
