Pros

Friendly customers, for the most part. Supportive management, at first. Insurance available for part-time staff at reasonable price.

Cons

Deceptive hiring practices. I was hired for a position that had not yet been created. Was told I would cashier for the month(at most) until position was available. I accepted, not knowing they had no intention of making position available for 6 months. They were desperate for cashiers and I was hired in at that position under the ruse of a better position. Be wary of employment contract they make you sign. Don't let them fool you into thinking you'll be promoted to, or even cross-trained in another position. If they get you to run a register, you're there to stay!

Pros

• Generally work with fantastic people. • Work is not difficult, and time flies when busy. • My bosses collaborated with me to create a schedule that worked, as I often had other commitments. • Overall, a pleasant work experience most days. Get good at what you do and you'll do fine.

Cons

• Some of the senior management was less friendly than others - as to be expected. • Days were very volatile; some could be extremely easy, and others could be a nightmare. • Scheduling was kept rather limited; although I was able to get the hours I wanted, often times management would look to cut hours from departments whenever possible, leaving less support.
