Pros

Great work “family” great discount. You get a lot of free reign when you “pay your dues” cross training experience is good on a resume.

Cons

Poor management. Constant pressure for credit apps low pay whenever you call a manager you they will tell the customer the exact opposite of what you say. When you leave don’t even put in a two weeks. They will find a reason to fire you anyway.

Pros

Decent hours, you get off earlier depending on the size of the truck coming in that day which can be a good and bad thing. You also get several hours before the store opens without customers. No late nights.

Cons

Too early for some, and even earlier mornings during high traffic times of the year like Christmas/Black Friday Sales days.
