Pros

Co-workers are awesome, they offer a great discount, 20% normal and 40% a few times a year. Plenty of time between days worked to get another job, which you WILL need.

Cons

VERY few hours, some weeks as low as 2.5 hours for the whole week. Schedule changed nearly every day, and the one time you miss a change it is called job abandonment and you are fired. Although they give you BS about how you have "quit". You are told you must call in daily for schedule changes. that is NON SENSE!! For a less than part time job??

Pros

All of my coworkers were wonderful. No high school drama. Boss was flexible and understanding, although he always liked it if you said you could work more hours. The employee discount is pretty awesome. The work wasn't bad and rude customers were rare.

Cons

There was pressure to come in even when you were sick. Pay wasn't the greatest; it usually stayed ahead of minimum wage, but by no means kept up with inflation. Visits from corporate often meant a new change in procedures that had been working and demands that were somewhat unreasonable given the constraints of the layout or number of employees available.
