Working at Aaron's in Columbus, OH: 3 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Columbus, OH Area

"I have worked for Aaron's for the past 5 years... it was real competitive and we had goals to meet daily weekly and monthly that's is why I liked Working there!"

"The company used to be great but in the last 3 or 4 years it has changed. The company refused to allow me my vacation time because profit had decreased at my location, but allowed other GMs in the region to have excessive days off. I left having 27 days of vacation, sick, and personal days. The regional manager rarely helped at my location but spent his time at a location that was doing well because it was close to his home. My personal life was brought into several conversations and discussed with my staff by the regional manager. Taking days off was rarely an option and if I did get one off I was usually called in by upper management. I was asked to reschedule medical appointments. It was not worth the 50,000. I was working 70 hours a week making roughly 14.50 an hour with no overtime. I was with company 7 plus years. The last 3 were horrible. If you want to have any quality of life outside of work do not work at Aarons."
