Pros

The discount - 20% off

Cons

You are bullied for email addresses - to bully customers to open credit cards The stress level and what they expect is crazy for how low they pay . You will never get a Friday or Saturday off. You might get 1 Sunday off a month . They love to bring you in for 3-4 hours a day enough to ruin your day but, not enough to make it worth it.

Pros

The discount is nice and occasionally you actually find a decent human being

Cons

Management often does not back up employees on the floor Unrealistic expectations are presented for employees, which means they are forced to pick and choose Customers are trained to be monsters - if they complain about ANYTHING, management expects us to accommodate them at any cost (accepting old coupons, honoring misplaced signs, discounts for any inconvenience they experienced in our store, accepting ALL returns, no questions asked) "Just make the customer happy" Store is incredibly understaffed, which leads to less personal experiences with customers and often ties you down to the register While the discount is nice, you can't use your personal credit card or debit card and when double discount comes around, you rarely know it Coupons are terrible, customers are worse (mostly because of the coupons) Everything is ALWAYS on sale here, so it's a wonder they make any money; everyone asks if our store is going out of business because of such low prices and inventory
