Pros

The job causes you to meet some nice customers and employees.

Cons

The pay is weak. Managers ignore you if you mess up on one time. Alot of the times you won’t be scheduled and you’ll see “others” being scheduled more than you. The amount of cashiers that were scheduled were slim. They pull people from their department and have them to ring. Employees would have a hard time finishing freight because of this.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- Performance expectations were often unclear or inconsistently communicated, Feedback was reactive instead of timely and actionable. - Leadership quality varied dramatically by manager, with limited coaching or mentorship. - Constant shifting priorities without adjusting expectations or workload. - Psychological safety was lacking, Honest communication feel risky. - Leadership messaging around culture didn't match day-to-day reality. - Process was often valued more than impact or results. - Compensation well below market, w/little flexibility during negotiations. - I felt excluded from key conversations and opportunities that were important to my success.
