Pros

- Most team members are friendly and will train new team members pretty well. It also makes for easier transition when changing departments like I did. - Was nice interacting with customers that regularly shopped there. I was able to meet some nice people. - I was able to work different departments throughout my time there so it made for nice change of pace when needed.

Cons

- Communication was always an issue. Team leaders would tell you to do one thing. Then a lines leader would tell you to do another. And when a team member would call off they would every once in a while forget to tell us. - There were days where we were so short staffed where I was only able to take a lunch and no other breaks. - Turnout rate of losing team members started to get high and it took a while to get replacements. - The equipment (RF scanners, printers) would sometimes not work and would make doing things like markdowns, creating shelf tags, or a price check more difficult.

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.
