Pros
Good Health Benefit package if your willing to wait 5 years. Well known name. Lots of customer traffic. You can own stock at a good price. Depending on who the scheduler is, you can have the ability to have 4 days off in a row without vacation days being used. You can get to a position that pays you over 35,000 in one year. You can learn about other stores through the transfer system. As an Asst MGR you get 4 hours OT automatically. Lots of opportunity to learn aspects of the Store Operation.
Cons
It's definitely a dog eat dog company. Don't plan on anyone being your common teammate to acheive a common goal. There is no team, just a bunch of asst mgr's trying to leap frog themselves into an Executive Assistant Manager position at any cost to anyone. Instead of spending thorough time training their Asst Mgr's on each department they demand you remember how to do something months after the 1st time you were trained on the task. (i.e. Trained 1 time, 1 day, months later you have to do it perfect or you get written up or hammered by the Store Manager) If your an Asst Mgr assigned to a night or evening position and you have a major emergency don't call for help because no one will be there to take your call. They definitely have training modules and timelines. One manager was so enthralled in having the best time for these that the employees simply had to take the test at the end of each video training section over and over until they got the answers right instead of letting them take the time to read through the material before the test. The pharmacy is another story in itself. The tech's are terribly paid but must do the work of someone who is paid 3X their paycheck. It's just plain dangerous to work in the stock rooms without adequate equipment and the demands of customer service.
