Pros

Fellow co-workers. Your team becomes your family. You are all in the Titanic and trying to keep the ship afloat... but sadly in the end we all know what happens to the Titanic.

Cons

Hours, No support from upper management, typical good old boy system, pick and chose when and who to enforce company policies on, Company does not like the boat to be rocked so keep your head down just work you hours and do not call anything out and you'll be fine. pay is way below industry standards, systems are out dated, staff are not trained and or then encouraged.

Pros

There are many nice customers coming through your line who make your day.

Cons

There are several supervisors who think they know everything and refuse to listen to their fellow employees who never attended college. They would constantly cut hours, and full-time for the company is 30 hours. I was on their health insurance, and would they consistently cut my hours to the point where I almost was kicked off of their insurance. There were front end supervisors who had worked there less time than me who became supervisors. Many cashiers would come to me asking for help because most supervisors would retaliate against them. All the people in management who were excellent would move onto another store in the company. Their benefits are an absolute joke, as it cost nearly $150 per paycheck for insurance. B & R also self insures and likes to fire people just before their one year "evaluation", as you have to work for the company for at least one year to become an employee owner. They are always understaffed and likes to set up cashiers and courtesy clerks for failure. I had times when I was the only register open and there were at least eight people waiting in line and after calling more help, nobody would show up. The same thing would happen when I needed a courtesy clerk. They also give very little notice about your upcoming hours, and our store's HR person also worked at another B & R store and was "fake nice".
