Pros

The pay is fair They are flexible with your schedule Taking time off is easy

Cons

If you wanted to work here and enjoy an easy or pleasant job you've come to the wrong place. I was usually harassed by managers daily and was treated as if I were in boot camp. Managers watch your every move. If you are younger than 25 older people who work there will treat you like dirt. Customers will degrade you and management doesn't care.

Pros

Good compensation including not just standard pay, but also end of year bonus 80 hours for hourly associates, 8% of your annual earnings granted to you in free company stock thru which quarterly dividends are paid, ok 401k, and gift card and other associate coupons. Good stability and growth. Good company culture.

Cons

Can be slow and resistant to change. Uses some antiquated systems and software that should have been replaced years ago. Does some things that don't make sense. Some managers can be good, while others not very good. Although these cons may be true for a lot of companies. All roads eventually lead to Lakeland where they are headquartered. Geography can be a big one if you are not a Florida native. If you don't want to live in Florida for some legitimate reasons, there can be limited job options in other states, especially if you aren't interested in retail or warehouse jobs. Standard retail negatives about not having a lot of holidays off.
