Pros

Most managers will work around activities, such a vacations and family things.

Cons

The pay SUCKS. Although you do get raises faster than anywhere else, ive been there 2 years and still no paid vacation days, no medical insurance because i cant afford the 40 bucks to come out of my $100 paychecks...the employees start too much drama and they backstab like no other. I have never been treated this bad in my LIFE! Also, they get hiring happy and over hire so your hours get cut from 35 hours to 15 if your lucky. And they get promotion happy. This guy came over from photo to our department and he has no clue how to run my department...

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
