"Nice Clean very quite environment. 45 hours work week is good to balance your life."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"You need to ask questions to the interviewer .They are not exactly telling your job description.If you are interested try to visit several stores so you can feel how it is going to be working in these huge stores with thousand and thousands of frames and arts by yourself."

What don't you like about working at Aaron Brothers?

"They are staffed very very low. The whole store was run by 4 -5 people. The biggest challenge is Frame and art supplies deliveries every week. They arrived after midnight and it is so hard to find some to work for 5 hours for that hard job. Plano-gram is created by cooperate office and ask you to change the big store from one end to another without enough staffing."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Immediately hire persons for delivery and put away the frames and art supplies.learn how to frame the arts asap as framers usually work Monday thru Friday.prepare yourself to get up at the middle of the night to do the deliveries and rest few hours and go back to work.if you are a manager coming from busier environment with lots of employees this place is not for you."
