Pros
Flexible Schedule, Easy to request off Fun work environment depending on coworkers <--this is a MAJOR positive Free Movies and posters Not always hectic/busy so have time to relax Time and a half on Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving Rarely gets boring and you get to meet people from all walks of life Good for night owls Regular reviews for floor staff and raises
Cons
Corrupt/uncaring DM's Promotion of mostly males into the GM positions and only ones who buddy up to the DM's Inconsistent enforcement of policies and procedures resulting in stressful work environments, each building does whatever they want to do regardless of policies. Overbearing HR Department - you need to be the "i don't care" manager in order to not get in trouble Low pay rate - pay rate can be higher for higher volume locations Very corporate -they don't care about the employees or managers, only about their stocks on the market Reviews for managers are often not completed or you never see them
