Pros

Great customer loyalty, discounted items always helpful, support among most store level employees, flexibility on scheduling if you're a good worker, room for movement in different departments. I worked in front end, stock and pet care and most people were very willing to help you learn.

Cons

Low pay, insufficient employee reviews, turnover of management a lil too fast, having to work beyond schedule limitations sometimes (ex. you let them know you can't work past three and you're scheduled to four). I worked 39 hours a week so I couldn't be considered full-time and get good benefits. A person who worked for a month received a promotion over me (was there for year and half) cause of favorites with one manager. Very unfortunate. She made many mistakes in her new position.

Pros

If you have experience they can pay very well considering the size of the company. Depending on which store you are in, they can be pretty good at fostering a good environment and culture.

Cons

Company is primarily focused on sales and not customer experience. So expect a lot of metrics and hounding customers. Company is trying to be technologically forward but continues to neglect to invest in the technology. So there’s updates every week crashes every week with no communication around it.
