Pros

Very great hard working employees that are there who helped to make your shift and work environment good as well support each other. That is the ONLY thing that made it good. Fast paced, never a same work day. Decent starting pay and good health benefits.

Cons

Upper management and store manager especially doesn’t listen, makes it hard for you to do your job. Poor upper management by the store manager. Lack of leadership, does not like to listen, no work life balance, rush job who only cares to get bonuses. No matter how hard you work you won’t be valued or appreciated at all. Scheduling conflict.

Pros

Great benefits, fast paced environment, good teamwork. I liked the hours, you get an education about tools, whether from your coworkers or the customers. And speaking of the customers, they were on the better side for retail. Most are down to earth and easy to converse with.

Cons

Supply chain issues, many parts would never be replenished, despite being featured, advertised, and on display. That would often lead to tensions with customers. Aggressive time constraints on tasks. Sidewalk sales, holidays, and also coincidentally inclement weather days, can be quite busy and therefore stressful. Especially if there's call outs, but if you have a good management team, you'll have good staff that will want to work for them.
