      Hard Working, Fast Paced work environment, minimal staff

      Shift manager/cashier
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      If you want a job where you are always busy this is for you! Also a plus if you find working out fun; every shift is a work out. Great pay. Great Benefits.

      Cons

      No chance to climb the corporate ladder, they hire outside the company for higher paying jobs (MIT, DM etc.) No consistency with hours, or pay. As a shift manager (assistant manager) you will be paid only when you show up on the schedule as a manager- often time expecting to do manager job while getting paid significantly less. Often safety is an issue with large sums of cash on hand and minimal staff in the store, sometimes only you if someone is on break. You will be pushed to your limits mentally and physically and you will develop back problems if continued in this work place- extreme lifting and refusal to provide back braces or the ability to wear them. Extreme biased in hiring. Any one older than 30 will not be hired.

      Dangerously luring

      Area manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Responsibilities given very early, careful and detailed training with mentors, large variety of tasks.

      Cons

      No specific training on programs, abilities and other qualifications needed everywhere in the world outside the company. Once you are not the one out of ten to twenty candidates to get promoted after 5 years of service, your career will be finished.

      Back breaking work, cashiers expected to do everything

      Cashier
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Can not think of any

      Cons

      The cashier doesn't just ring up the items. They also are required to unload HUGE pallets of boxes. You are required to use a pallet jack, unload the pallets by yourself every day for HOURS. Usually there is about 12 pallets to unload everyday. You must lift the heavy boxes/items off of the pallet and the stock the shelves in 2 hours before the store opens. Once the store is open, you are the only cashier and you are still required to continue to unload the pallets and stock shelves all day while at the same time being the only cashier on duty. There are no stock clerks or cleaning crews. You are also required to it all....the register (1 cashier), unloading the truck, stocking shelves, and cleaning the store. IT SUCKED!!!
