Pros

The Company has great core principles that are applied in my everyday work life. Collaboration, doing the right thing, frugality, humility, keeping our egos in check and continuous improvement. The company is growing tremendously 1211 stores which means extreme opportunity for growth and development. Company believes in work life balance and really invests in their employees.

Cons

Overall technology could be better however I have seen much growth over the last four years.

Pros

So many amazing customers and co workers. Pay is good depending on your position.

Cons

Upper management. Store managers vary by store a lot are great some absolutely terrible. The decisions made have been absolutely terrible. Cutting hours pushing everyone even more. Hiring part timers and expecting them to work like full time associates after a month of 12 hour work weeks. Used to be a great place to work now despite the company insisting its the best place to work its garbage. In my district alone I know theres 11 leaders looking to leave.
