Pros

The employees were super sweet, and we all helped and supported each other as much as we possibly could. I enjoyed learning and getting small, gifted items from the store and becoming interested as a new person in each character, world, and product.

Cons

Management was the worst I've ever experienced. Super passive-aggressive, mean, and rude to customers, which means that we had to pick up the pieces afterwards. Everyone was constantly stressed by upper management and the corporation, with things that were hard to enforce in the store as well. They disallowed so many things and changed the rules every week, making the space hard to work in and alienating us from connecting with people and our coworkers. The amount of emotional labor and effort we had to put in for little pay was ridiculous.

Pros

There are none. This place is the worst.

Cons

Surveillance state tactics. They're always watching you with their AI camera garbage. Micromanage to a degree I have never seen before. Everything needs a sign off, with a picture, with a thumbs up in one of the 20 plus chats you'll be forced to use. One boss? Try like five, at least. Pop in visits are the norm. Discounts? You can't even buy product at your home store. So no, no discounts. But be sure to use your membership at other stores if you must purchase something, that way they can track you.
