Pros
Paid weekly, made a couple good friends, lunch on weekends and holidays, easy to get hired, they will hire anybody with a beating heart.
Cons
Very hostile uncomfortable work environment. Company sells themselves to you by talking up how great free lunch on the weekends is, and how important their employees are, like a family...and how they love to promote within. Free lunch? How bout overtime on federal holidays like majority of retailers pay instead? Bet they wouldn't schedule those 10-12 hour shifts on those days anymore. Family? Only if you make them lots of money. Promotions? Ha. I've seen more people denied positions than get them. They don't take the time to know their people and their behaviors as far as managing people. Bottom line is how much you sell. Period. Doesn't matter if you know operations or are and amazing team building manager. If you are a rock star sales person you'll move up. The worst turnover rate I have ever seen in 20 years of work experience. NEVER get weekends off, when management regularly rotates their weekends off. And will lose your job if you can't be available every weekend. Very hypocritical management/leads. They are up *there, the rest of us are down *here. Constantly get talked down to on the Mike for the entire store to hear. Staff are really treated like children. No proper training. Thrown on floor to either make it or break it with little support. Management staff going out with and sleeping with employees under them. Lots of friends and family get hired which really creates clicks within store and those are the people who end up with promotions. I could go on for days. Too many negative aspects to this environment. Not healthy.
