Pros

- very flexible scheduling - awesome, funny co-workers - most of management is tolerable - the work is relatively easy, depending on what department you're in - shifts always go by quickly/you're typically kept busy - decent paychecks if you're on commission and selling a lot

Cons

- management sucked at communicating with employees - working until 1 in the morning during the holiday season if you had a closing shift - if you work in a commission-based department, you're expected to go to these meetings every couple of months that are usually not all that helpful/beneficial - management really pushes credit apps/surveys
