Pros

As a high schooler I made a decent wage a couple dollars above minimum wage. After proving to management my strong work ethic I was able to get more hours.

Cons

In order to advance you do not need a strong work ethic you simply need to be friends with upper management. My boss offered me a position in the warehouse about five different times, I accepted every offer yet he never moved me to the warehouse he always hired someone a week or so later from another store he was friends with. My hours in the front end as a courtesy clerk averaged over 30 hours a week which is great but the schedule was not. A typical week for me would include getting scheduled 10-20 hours and then getting called in every day I was available. Very frustrating!

Not enough hours/pay to pay bills, odd hours makes it almost impossible to work a 2nd job

Pros

good pay rate, associate discount on groceries, mostly good techs

Cons

Zero work life balance, unless you live to work. "Training" screams of "I don't care". They brag about how GREAT their pharmacist training is, but that was 20 years ago, today their 4 week great training has been shoved into ONE week of on-the-job training with zero follow up or concern that you can't possibly learn all you need in that time, then they shove you out the door. Training during a cyberattack that has nothing working? That's fine, you don't get any extra time despite the fact that you can't learn on a non-working system. Management BS is deep, such as "we want our employees to know why decisions are made" then no way to ask and none of the low level managers has any freaking clue as to why changing an address in the database was changed from just overtyping it to a 5 minute process of logging into a poorly written website to update - and you thought we were bad about it before! And they ask for feedback an entire ONCE a year, with no way of providing it before.
