Pros

The conservative attitude of the company. The people were easy to get along with. Provided uniform made getting ready easy. The store is beautiful and we took pride in keeping it clean. The customers were great! This is Candyland to them. They WANT to be there. Knowledgable staff because most of them did it part time and worked in the departments they were passionate about.

Cons

The schedule. Nights, weekends, holidays. But, it's retail. What do you expect. Also, the pay for associates was low.

Pros

The atmosphere of the store and its enthusiastic customers make it fun place to work. The staff are great, knowledgeable people who treat each like family. Also, you can't beat the awesome employee discount.

Cons

The fact that it's retail, your schedules are never set in stone, the hours are crazy and days are long, sometimes even too short to be worth the gas money. Management is the biggest con, they do not care about their employees and make poor choices that end up hurting their employees, rather themselves. Favoritism is very huge in this company and HR does nothing about it.

Pros

Discount and steady paycheck every week

Cons

Being told in notes sent out by management that hrs are given to people who get gear guards and credit cards they get special consideration. So no matter how well you do or how hard you try it doesnt matter.
