Pros

Discount, great employees to talk to , good job to do nothing and get paid ,

Cons

Point system , not many hours , low raises , sweatshop work conditions . Mangement got to sit in a nice ac office the ac was broke all summer and it was so hot I just could it take it , corporate must not give a hoot bec even customers complained ... They won't give u anymore than 29 hours a week if ur lucky or they don't lay you off ... I met some of the nicest people working here , some of the best actually and we all complained... If I was a ceo or owned a business i would care what my employees had to say , there they ones doing ur work while u make ur millions .. And if they suck u into working f3 u will have to work at 6am til whenever and it's still minum wage ...oh and if you call out and u have a doctors note you still get points . This place sucks a lot . I couldn't afford any of my bills when I worked there ... Please go get a job with BENEFITS , and actaul real raises , and not a lousey 12 Cents after a year ...
