Pros

- Free lunch - Relatively easy

Cons

- Signed up for part time, but was worked 20-25 hours a week and was criticized for requesting less hours (I was in full time school at the time) - Schedule wouldn't be released until the day before the next work week - Unclear communication - Management refused to let me take sick days (leading to me being forced to quit when I had to go to the hospital and they wouldn't listen) - Rude and lazy coworkers - Criticized for not picking up shifts when only given an hour's notice

Pros

Very flexible scheduling, especially if your manager is willing to work around all their employees. You usually get a 50% discount that you can use once a day too.

Cons

Direct district management at this location does not know how to manage people. He will not really do anything to help or assist until his supervisors look into his stores and what he does. He will shift blame onto any general manager he can, and if any district manager decides you are doing your job incorrectly or you need to adjust what you are doing, there will be little to no support in helping you become a better employee. It really can become a "popularity contest" when you work in store management. If you are a regular employee or shift lead, you won't really have any direct contact with district management.
