Pros

- Pay rate respectable to current pay scales - Somewhat flexible with scheduling - Benefits - Regular / repeat customers - Co workers - 24 hours opens up more jobs etc. - Computerized schedules along with posted ones - Typically no one is right on top of you so you can do your job in peace to the best of your abilities

Cons

- Cliquish, snobby management (some) - Sometimes some leaders are unwilling to help junior employees with customers and the customer ends up suffering in the long run by waiting twice as long or sometimes not getting any answer by some of the less experienced employees - Unrealistic point system and time frame for lateness for breaks or shifts (most places will allow 5 min grace period) We are not allowed even 2! (1, 58 sec) (Life happens, unforeseen road closures, deaths, accidents, health issues etc.)

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.
