Pros

My manager was easy going I made my own schedule I made friends with my coworkers The store is interesting

Cons

The pay was minimum wage Managers don’t get paid well enough for me to want to move up to that position It seemed like a clear disconnect between corporate and store operations.

Pros

Most employees were really fun to work with, life/work balance was great, taught me good life skills, good first job for work experience.

Cons

Barely got scheduled (pretty sure my location was way over employed), occasional rude and entitled costumers (especially during the holidays), could get very slow and boring at times, sketchy area, overal, not a great job if you're looking for something that pays well.
