Business outlook
Pros
Opportunities for advancement without a degree. I've known many people who for one reason or another didn't pursue higher education and were relegated to a low level associate position with the company. However, as time went on and they developed a track record that distinguished themselves in the workplace, they were given the opportunity to grow their career with the company. Their sweat began to payoff as they realized in this type of business the more productive time spent at the store, the more profitable the job.
Cons
Lack of communication. The company tends to play chicken with aspiring employees when it comes to promotions. Leverage an offer against them and you suddenly become the flavor of the week.
