Pros

Managers created a friendly work environment most of the time Decent starting wage Chance to move up in the position

Cons

Scheduling - bad hours or not scheduling enough people Communication about changes Didn't always have enough or right supplies to do my job Confusing leadership structure Very small raises - several people's starting wage was very close to mine when I had already been working there for 4 years

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
