Pros

Overall an interesting place to work, I enjoy meeting the new people and sometimes having the chance to learn something new. You get the chance to move around while working, so if you are the type of person that doesn't like to stay still for too long well there you go. Management can be quite flexible/understanding most times which I appreciate seeing as school is my main priority. The employee community within the store can be somewhat close at times and gives you the chance to make good work friends that you can at times rely on.

Cons

Of course there are those rude customers that don't want to acknowledge the fact that somethings we do because of policy, and even in some cases they want to complain about the most ludicrous things even though it isn't the first time they've been to the same or any other store location. There is not that much opportunity at all to move up in a company unless you are a Full-time employee. IMO, there isn't that much recognition when you bust your butt doing such heavy tasks to help customers out (which I understand I must do since it is my job). I wish there were more of a chance to move up in the company. For the work you do I don't think only 8/hour is that good, especially when you put in more effort.

Pros

it is a job if you desperately need one

Cons

management does not keep promises (e.g. I was promised $2 higher pay upon accepting the position and later was told it wasn't feasible anymore once starting. I was also promised a specific day off then last minute had it revoked because they decided to make it a mandatory day). management does not listen to or care about its employees, very unprofessional. store managers don't want to do anything to help, they just sit in the office. management let other employees slack off and do nothing and expected others to compensate for their lack of effort general manager was horribly rude and misogynistic. he threw a box at someone while visiting.
