Pros

- Majority of the employees are really great to work with. Most how to know how to handle customers with a smile and show them what they're looking for. - Most of the management is great. They provide help to the sales associates when needed. - It's always nice to see families, soon-to-be parents, and regulars come in, especially adorable children to interact with. - Minimal scheduling conflicts when it comes to availability for school.

Cons

- Hard to request a Saturday or Sunday off if you're one of those people who work EVERY weekend. - Too many boxes of shipment to deal with that we don't even have space in our stockroom or storage shed to walk. - Starting pay is horrible. Been assigned with a lot more work lately for just a little bit above minimum wage. All the work that's being done is too much for the wage that's being received. Another hard-working employee has been in the company for 2+ years and has never received a raise. - We're told that there's room to grow in the company, but every new management that we've received has been from the outside. - Company does not care for their employees, although there seems to be favoritism at times.
