Pros

work isn't difficult, but it's still manual labor where you walk around a lot

Cons

Store's will cut hours well below 40 if corporate wants them to for whatever reason, our store went over budget on the remodel they did, and mysteriously everyone started to have their hours cut drastically, the pay was poor but you won't get much more from an entry level retail job, no upwards mobility career wise

Management & Stress: The work experience depends heavily on local store leadership. Understaffing and the pressure to hit strict metrics (like those in fulfillment or front-end tasks) can lead to burnout
