Pros

Big 5 is completely dead most of the time, maybe 20 customers the entire day, so really, you don't have to work.

Cons

Full time managers talk behind peoples backs. Made the job very toxic. Picked a few hard workers and forced them to do all the work, basicically if you were good at your job you got rewarded by more work.

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.
