Pros

-Very in depth and extensive training program for all crew members that touches on all aspects of the operation. -Free lunch or dinner up to $15 each shift.

Cons

-Salary is low for the level of work involved. -Only job I ever had where I was a manager but was required to punch out for lunch but continue doing my duties as if I was working on the clock. -Concerns regarding the upkeep of the store were consistently brushed off or put off and didn't seem to care that I took the initiative to seek out the problems that needed to be fixed. -Never addressed the fact that the previous management team did nothing to address the numerous health dept violations throughout the store. -Store safe was short a large amount of money before I started working there, yet the issue kept being brought up to me while I was employed there as if I was supposed to find out what happened or come up with a solution from a problem that occurred while not even employed. -Issues regarding the tardiness of another manager were never addressed and caused tension among the team members in the store. -Was terminated during COVID with no notice or warning after taking a leave of absence due to family members being immunocompromised and not wanting to risk them getting sick.
