Pluspunten

Upper management seldom visits the stores. There are many freedoms that other companies do not offer. Getting time off is easy. If you like spreadsheets and playing a 'numbers game' then you'll do fine.

Minpunten

The company preaches things like integrity, but morals take a back seat to profitability. This statement is true in all aspects of the business. Don't bring attention to this flaw in the system or you will be blacklisted. You will be told that in order to be successful you must 'do whatever it takes' to succeed. In my case, this meant working no less than fifty hours and up to seventy hours per week. It also meant driving my own car instead of a company truck.

Pluspunten

Lots of responsibility. Decentralized company, which can work in your favor.

Minpunten

Pay is low based on competitors. Politics, lots of it. Cost-centers everywhere. Everyone has to make money off the branches: the hub, NA, regions, support, etc. Being a GM is probably one of the hardest jobs. Your job on the lean team is to support NA and the branch. It is hard to fully support both at the same time. It is a balancing act that frequently is blamed on you. Frequently, your coworkers just want to put their name on your work and create problems because of their egos.
