      One of the better "teen" jobs out there

      Sales associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      commission positions allow for huge commissions if you work hard (about 75% of my pay was commission) 20% off employee discount 4 times a year you get 40% off employee discount incentives for performance usually in the form of free stuff involved in several charities really good pay for a "teen" job (if you get a commission position). will hire with no experience.

      Cons

      not a lot of hours lots of "catiness" and drama when you go the extra mile for the company (pick up weekend shifts, fill in for call outs, volunteer to do extra inventory, and all the other stuff no one else will do) your efforts usually go unnoticed fake managers they advertise that they will work with your school schedule then schedule you on the days you have class lots of favoritism ignore employees new ideas threaten elderly employees with termination if they have to take off work for a substantial amount of time for medical procedures

      Family run, can be very nice or can start to question leadership

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      privately held so no high pressure on quarterly earning results although company is interanlly very expense driven

      Cons

      seems to fall in love with new ideas that are buzz trends or new employees but then the love wears off and there is not the same loyalty and consistency as in previous years
