Pros

The people I worked with in store were mostly great. The job is simple compared to some larger retail stores where the responsibilities are almost impossible. This job is straightforward and when staffed appropriately you are able to stay on top of things and keep things running smoothly without stress.

Cons

Managers do everything. Associates cannot sell a giftcard without you being present. You are underpaid, most stores are short staffed so you are overworked and their are no rewards for Asst managers. No bonuses, no free lunches, no employee discount, and many managers are forced to work shifts alone when associates call off.

Pros

There genuinely isn’t any good things about working at this retail purgatory.

Cons

Worst corporate leadership I’ve ever seen. Direction is impossible bc it’s a vicious cycle of *miss sales goal *hours cut * less product make it to the floor * repeat endlessly As an employee, you are nothing but an uncared for pawn whose entire purpose it to be drained of your usefulness and discarded for the next poor soul unfortunate enough to end up working in this living nightmare
