Pros

There aren't many, the discount is decent.

Cons

Compensation isn't fair, upper management doesn't take documented serious feedback seriously. Schedules are on a needed basis, mistreatment is common place. lack of respect. Pretty much the worst place I have ever worked.

Pros

It's a super easy job. They are very good about requested days off at my location. The store manager at this location is very knowledgeable and personable and knows what he is doing. Good place to make some lasting friendships.

Cons

Where to begin...corporate, District Managers, Loss Prevention Managers...have lost sight of what the stores do and how we work. People have been fired for crazy ridiculous reasons(store manager shed tears over how stupid it was). I have worked for the company for 5 YEARS and they are hiring new people at higher pay than me. They have no room for promotion or advancement as they outsource for managing positions. Very few promotions have been given in my 5 year period. Most of the managers are not very personable when it comes to employees or customers. Whats worse is they are very lazy and don't lead by example, and when they start to they find an excuse to go back to just standing around and talking. Overall the company needs a makeover or two. Ed Stack needs to go on that Undercover Boss show and learn what its like to be the lowest of the low in the company.

Pros

Great Benefits Good Employee Discount great sports enviroment

Cons

Store disorganized Hour cutting when it comes to essential front end personnel New processes rolled out that don't work or make sense in all stores too much of the "who cares" mentality Long lines of customers with no back up cashiers to help one cashier working most of the time
