Pros

Exciting environment and flexible Managers. Offered merit raise after two month.

Cons

Not enough detailed training and inadequate attendants on second half of shift to closing. This takes both the manager and the Trainee away from the order desk while having to take care of returns and department maintenance. Also, Area Manager fails to be aware of accomplishments and focuses on deficiencies from the start. He does not cite recent improvements or other positive contributions. The evaluation after nine weeks was all negative. Department Manager while present failed to offer supporting remarks about performance improvement and positive contributions that he was aware of while present during this evaluation.

Pros

40+ Hours per week of work guaranteed.

Cons

A toxic work environment can lead to termination without warning. Senior management prioritizes their interests and the company’s well-being, often disregarding employees’ rights and legal obligations. HR’s role is to protect senior management and the company, potentially at the expense of employees’ rights. Senior management continually chooses to a blind eye to wrong doing of favored employees, while knowingly prioritizing punishment of lower employees using fabricated policies that aren’t actually within store policy and procedures. Lack of accountability, lack of transparency, and lack of integrity run rampant with in the store and company. Unethical hiring practices, and weaponized incompetence to justify the out right gaslighting of your financial income and incentives. Pay deductions common place.
