Pros

45-min lunch breaks (If you're a slow eater). Not a strict and stressful job, but DON'T take advantage of it. Majority of the people were friendly, and helpful, including management. Flexible hours, (especially for college students).

Cons

45-min lunch breaks. I'd preferably use those extra 15 min to work Empty Promises: -Difficult to move up to higher/different positions. -Critically low hours (work here only during seasonal times).

Pros

it is a job if you desperately need one

Cons

management does not keep promises (e.g. I was promised $2 higher pay upon accepting the position and later was told it wasn't feasible anymore once starting. I was also promised a specific day off then last minute had it revoked because they decided to make it a mandatory day). management does not listen to or care about its employees, very unprofessional. store managers don't want to do anything to help, they just sit in the office. management let other employees slack off and do nothing and expected others to compensate for their lack of effort general manager was horribly rude and misogynistic. he threw a box at someone while visiting.
