Pros

- Sears is undergoing a huge change, as one of the software engineer full time employee, I can take on greater responsibility and further develop my skill set. - Coworkers at the Online Business Unit are all hardworking and smart people. - The cafeteria and the HQ location is very nice and beautiful. - Great work, Life balance - Pay above industry medium for a losing company. but don't expect huge end year bonus though.

Cons

- The company lacks vision, the upper management is driving this company to the ground. - negative quarter after negative quarter, this giant is going downhill really fast compare to it's competition Walmart and Target. - The HR people are really confused and lack proficiency.

Pros

Working at Sears allowed us to develop strong customer service, communication, and problem-solving skills in a retail environment. We gained experience assisting customers, handling transactions, managing merchandise, and working as part of a team to meet sales and operational goals. The position also helped us improve time management, adaptability, and the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced setting while maintaining a positive attitude toward customers and coworkers.

Cons

One challenge of working at Sears was managing periods of high customer traffic, which could be stressful and demanding. We occasionally faced difficult customer interactions, changing sales expectations, and the need to balance multiple responsibilities simultaneously. Additionally, retail schedules often required evening, weekend, and holiday shifts, which could affect our work-life balance.
