Pros

The other managers in the company, PTO, discount.

Cons

With the state that the company is in, the new VP sending out a blast communication how they’re at their 3rd live World Cup game while my team and I are almost begging for people to buy a $49 wallet is a little out of touch. We’re trying to reach unrealistic plans to get our extra $200 bonus (which is a joke) while I’m seeing her in a box seat… seeing that after I pleaded to give an employee a $1 raise and was denied was comical.

Pros

At one point it was the discounts til they changed the policies up during my fifth (and final year at the store). Aside from that, working with my fellow colleagues were the ones responsible for keeping the work environment together and made the experience much more fun and bearable.

Cons

As a part-timer, there's no benefits or any additional incentives. They'll "reduce your hours" if you're not meeting sales "expectations" by zoning you in different parts of the store that doesn't have a lot of foot traffic (i.e. cashier or front of house). Depending on who you work with on the management side of things... this job can make or break you. Last group of managers I had were NOT the most ideal examples when you give them "actionable feedback" and not follow through with their expectations.
