Pros

Great people to work with. 6 hour shifts. Great discount benefit. Hours are pretty flexible. Very encouraging team members. The POS system is easy to work.

Cons

The store I worked in was completely disorganized. Smelled kind of bad. We had to do manage fitting rooms, the floor and register all at the same time most days.

Pros

If you like working early morning hours and getting off early in the afternoon (which I do) this is a great part-time job. I was a college student when I worked here so it worked perfectly with my schedule. The pay is pretty decent and the people you work with are friendly.

Cons

Only real downside is that it's retail. You're going to run into some rude customers from time to time. There's always work to do and not enough time given to do it sometimes. But as long as you work hard and managers see that you're trying your best there isn't too much pressure put on you.
