Pros

Most of the staff are very nice

Cons

BEWARE, they will hire you as a cashier and then after 1 day on the register they transfer you to a department and you have to work it. I didn't sign up for the lifting of cases and cases and if you don't like your schedule they reduce your hours to starve you and then you have to quit. The owners are not from this country and I think they think it is acceptable to treat people rudely. I was yelled at in the store in front of other employees and customers for looking a pen from an area I was not told was off limits. Also if you decide to work there be aware that they bust all shoplifters and we averaged 2 a day. Sometimes there was violence and based on how low they pay it is not worth your safety. I worked there a short time and employees were hurt and customers were maced.

Pros

Nearby, always had mandated breaks. Had a close friend death occur and recieved immediate time off and support from one manager.

Cons

Very little training given, minor mistakes at other companies equal write-ups here, inefficient retraining, and 2/3rds of upper management ignoring me and acting immature for my final week because I quit
