Pros

The pay is on par with pay at similar companies, There is chance for advancement, The software programs for helping customers are some of the best in the industry,

Cons

Too much penny-pinching, especially at the end of the fiscal year, which for some insane reason occurs in the middle of AZ busy time of year. Higher up are more concerned with CTA, than with helping the people they are responsible for, at least above the store level.

Pros

The customers are what make the job tolerable. Not much else.

Cons

Pay rates under the national avg for Retail sales positions. Especially Management type positions. They compensate hourly wages based on a store to store basis even though each store is part of a corporation. This can be demeaning to employees at stores that don't have a large customer base verses stores in high traffic, high population areas.

Pros

Autozone has a really flexible schedule so if you are in school or have another job, you will be able to do both. I can not speak for all stores, However with mine I have a great Store Manager. The employee discount is awesome Walmart only gives 10 percent. My store hard work is rewarded.

Cons

We must buy the uniforms, The hours can be very long I sometimes work 12 hours everyday. We are short staffed during peak times. I do not believe in suggestive selling, or having a checkout challenge. If I was a Costumer I would get POed at someone trying to sell me junk I don't need. We are rated or graded on everything we do. You maybe considered part time and only on the schedule for 30 hours a week but you may work more than that without being considered full time and get the benefits. We are expected to keep our store emaculate only problem is that We are a very high volume store and they only keep two people staffed at night and day people generally could care less about helping out.
