Pros

There is a good discount for employees on merchandise in the store and Sundays off, along with closing time at about 8PM.

Cons

First and foremost I have calmed down from my previous posts to hopefully have a post now about this store. I will abide by the guidelines of your postings. However, if this is any indication of how upset people get at this store while working there, it is not good at all. I do not see a strong future in this retail store because of the practices going on in it. There are too many corners being cut in order to open one of these stores even up. The long hours put in are ridiculous to say the least and you are treated like a slave during the weeks of setting up the store. The breaks, you might as well not have any. The management is little and far between and the only positions left after setup are cashier and stocking. They will pick and choose who they have to run the departments for them and they will fire half the staff after setting up the store. There is nothing more or less that needs to be said about this company, without going into further underlying details, but it is ashame that I think a better option than working for this store is living on the streets.

Pros

good pay. 6 paid holidays.

Cons

Distribution center only cares about numbers, not employees. Keep your production up to 90 or above or you're a goner. Fellow employees wil mow you down trying to pull their items. and if you're slow, look out, you have to get out ot THEIR way. And of course you can't make your production if you can't work and have to wait for others to fill their orders.
