Vantaggi
As a PC Manager there is very few jobs that afford freedom. This is a company that gives you that; freedom of choice, freedom to run the business, freedom to fail or succeed. The profit share model that CED utilizes is an incentive to succeed. The trainee program that I went through gives an opportunity to people from all backgrounds. Good company, lots of opportunity to grow. We also generally don't work on weekends and I cannot explain to you how great it is to have the weekends off.
Svantaggi
The same can be said about the profit share model for unsuccessful locations. If a place is not successful in making profit for the year than you could end up with not much to show. A lot of CED hinges on management, good managers could cause a PC to rise or fall, I believe there are far more good manager than bad but there are bad out there as in any company. Unfortunately the thing that makes it a boon could make just as much a bust in the eyes of employees.
