Pros
The benefits were really good and offered to even the lowest level part time managers, the schedule was also very flexible and it was really fun working in an environment where you can be around things you love and talk about them openly with coworkers and customers without coming off as a nerd!
Cons
Working here for almost 3 years, A LOT of things changed. They stopped giving us paid holiday parties, they cut hours dramatically to the point where you have to work ALONE a lot if you're a manager, which is not safe or good for shrink (and yeah, you'll get in trouble if shrink is bad). If you're an associate you'll be scheduled 5 hours a week max, every other week... Because of how dramatic the hour cuts are. The pay is also horrible, starting managers off at $12 for the amount of work that's expected. The company has also been unnecessarily pushy when it comes to sales, making us walk around with an iPad that's huge to ask customers on the sales floor if they have rewards... It makes the customer uncomfortable and neither the employee or the customer wants to be in the situation, so why implement it at all? There's more important connections to make with the customer.
