Pros

Good starting pay. Fun to work with great crew, nice customers. You learn how to present new items all the time. Great position for retirees or college kids. No expectation that you will stay for any length of time, so no guilt at using it as a placeholder while you look for more steady employment.

Cons

Recruiters lie like a rug. Job offer was 18-24 hours weekly, Thursday thru Sunday. Not even close to fact, no excuses made, it's take it or leave it. Scheduling changes all the time, making it near impossible to have other work. Favoritism abounds. Lead position openings are never announced, but given to Supervisor's friends or relatives. Other friends/relatives are brought in as ES, with the intent to become leads when an opening is available. There is no training or encouragement to climb the ladder. No pay increases or any benefits, other than the chance to buy into substandard health insurance.

Cons

an honest example of your day, we will pay you for 15 minutes to run up to a Walmart. For that 15 minutes we will expect you to read instructions for any new changes, run in and check in with a manager, find our product, count our products exactly, go to the back room and find our products (which is by far the longest step), count our products in the back exactly, bring our products to the front of the store, take pictures and answer questions, remove all old products, stock by date, take pictures and answer questions. If this takes you 25-30 minutes, which is probably a more accurate accounting, we will still only pay you for 15. If you are lucky there may be another job that day, but if not you will be expected to waste your gas, drive to the Walmart that we demanded, and work that 15 minute job alone. In that case we will be demanding that you take an hour out of your day for $3.00.
