Pros

You get a great discount. You get to learn about things that practically apply to everyday life.

Cons

The day can drag on when people are not visiting the store. Management places lots of pressure on supervisors to hit numbers. The supervisors pass this along to the specialists in each department. To people who are ill-equpped handle sed pressure it has the potential to be stressful.

Pros

No Need to sell or deal with customers (Much) Constantly moving so you always have a task to do Management leaves you to your own devices Almost all warehouse employees have a set of headphone

Cons

Everyone (Cust & employees) Expect an encyclopedic knowledge on where every single item is. Management seems to think we can lift a 85" tv, pull a washer off the top shelf, stock gaming shelves, and handle store pick up at the same moment. Customers think we don't want to help them when we call someone else to help with sales There's almost too much to do and even though we may have 1-3 employees working at a time, 1 is at the door, 1 is behind store pick up, which leaves 1 employee to handle new orders, deliveries, and down stocking.
