Overall, the job had a lot of potential, but because of upper management and lack of accountability it wasn’t good

Assistant manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay was decent schedule pretty flexible and overall the job itself wasn’t very hard in my opinion

Cons

The cons would be the lack of accountability, the upper management and pretty much how the stores were ran in total. Plus more of the little stuff like having to work every holiday and we’re crazy hours while being understaffed.
