Pros

Fast paced work environment! We're a family! Feed the human spirit! $5 (Five Dollar) Coupons for Christmas bonus.

Cons

Undercuts your wages, awful pay for non-leads, uses abusive tactics to get you to work longer than you are able. Understaffed with no relief in sight. Punishes you for having a life and tries to call you in on every day off. I had worked here for a while and worked really hard and got promoted to a shift lead. I will not say my department because then I can be identified, but it was not stocking shelves. I got promoted to shift lead at a whopping $16.70 (this was before they upped the wages after I left). They claimed my wage was a typo multiple weeks later and offered me $16.30 or termination. I made the mistake of accepting that. Do not make the same mistake I did working for this location that tries to undercut hard workers who have children.

Pros

Job can be fun and interesting Always something new to learn Lots of personal fulfillment as a manager when things go right

Cons

Unsupportive upper management Toxic work culture, unpaid overtime is rewarded and even expected or forced, even to the tune of multiple weeks in a row with no days off when you are salaried. They claim to support work life balance but even the smallest effort to set boundaries is heavily punished. Not paid as much as we should be for everything we have to do and deal with
