Pros

Great team environment, work-life balance is great if you are not salaried (overtime is rarely allowed)

Cons

Not a lot of opportunity for promotion/development, management and staff can be cliquey, negotiating raises after getting hired is extremely difficult, stores are often not provided with enough equipment for everyone to do their job, payroll cuts/skeleton teams
