      Great place to work if you love retail and a good discount.

      Pros

      Flexible hours, good work environment, great discount, everyone is about the same age so you have a chance to build friendships with your fellow employees. Easy communication between the managers and the employees. A lot of team building activities that allow you to interact with all the employees and no just your own section. Good place to work for summer jobs and part time to keep the discount. Advance is pretty quick and as long as you work hard you can move up pretty quick with the company.

      Cons

      Shifts can be odd times during the day, hours can be cut dramatically depending on budget of section.

      Pros

      discount you get. management is easy going. super stylish blue shirts are versatile outside of work. name tags are particularly shiny. employees are young, youthful, beautiful, sexual, and bi-curious.

      Cons

      salary isn't fantastic. upward mobility is nonexistent. not enough pizza parties. customers are a real downer to this job. this position would be perfect if you never had to deal with customers. lots of buzzing and blinking and chirping electronics all around the store. the possibility that at any time, if computers and the like where to become self aware, that this workplace would be in the "danger zone" of their human-wrath.
