Pros

- VERY flexible scheduling. Great for a college kid. - Management at my store is a bit chaotic, but they DO care for their employees. - The work is incredibly easy. - I adore my co-workers. They make it worth it for me.

Cons

- Lower starting pay compared to places where you do the same job, such as Target or Ross. - People can get away with anything so long as they open enough credit cards. - I have about 6 managers at my store and none of them talk to one another. - No chance at a raise unless you become a supervisor. - The store is open entirely too late. 10:00 on a weekday, for real?

Pros

Pay is very good once you start getting raises. Weekly pay

Cons

Genuinely everything else, the pay is that high because they have to pay you over 25 just to put up with the awful environment. terrible structure, terrible management, no accountability, cliquey mean girl environment. managers are allowed to sit around and do essentially nothing while supervisors carry 100% of the load and there is no checks and balances to ensure management does the right thing. Corporate and HR genuinely don't care if certain people sit on their butt While others keep the business running. Credit card pushing is absolutely Off the Wall insane. Getting enough credit cards is all the company cares about and managers do not help. Managers are allowed to have no history with getting any credit cards at all and corporate doesn't bat an eye. If you try to speak out about anything that's going on you'll just get fired. Retaliation is allowed and encouraged.
