Pros

- Business is booming - Discount on purchases at the store

Cons

- "Full time" is 35 hours a week - In order to be a full time employee, you must be available every day of the week, all hours. (Forget trying to take any classes or scheduling events for your kids) - Bare minimum of recognition for a job well done (if you get that much) - Standards for sales change every other week, apparently at division's whim - Store can be a top 10 sales performer within the company and still get chewed out on a weekly basis, leading to them making the sales associates miserable

Pros

I loved my job. I’m met so many wonderful people. And the associates couldn’t have been better.

Cons

I hurt myself and had to have surgery, and I was on Worker’s Comp. with limited availability. Because hours were short in operations, they made up this crazy position and wanted me to be ”lead” of the markdown team. I knew that meant for the most part to do go backs. I told them I wasn’t allowed to be on my feet that long and so she said they couldn’t accommodate me and I had to leave. And then the manager had the nerve to call their workers comp and told them I wasn’t coming into work. The management at that time was horrible. But there was a time when I first started working there that to store manager, and the assistant manager were wonderful. We were all so sad they left, but it didn’t take this new manager that I was talking about any time at all to lose almost the entire store associates.
