Pros
- Pretty good benefits if you qualify for them. - Depending on the department, it’s a good job for students are people with second jobs.
Cons
- The company is going downhill, so they have been severely cutting hours and expecting one person to do the work of 3 or 4 people with no extra compensation. - HR is there to protect the company, not the workers. They are NO help if you actually have an issue that needs to be addressed. - (at my location specifically) Most of the TLs and ETLs in every department are just bad. They don’t care about their employees because they’re overworked themselves. I’m not sure if other stores do this, but my location trains people to do Team Lead responsibilities without actually being a Team Lead. These poor regular team members are told that this “middle position” is good if you want to be promoted to TL eventually, but it really is just a way to put TL responsibilities on a TM so that they get the same pay, same title, but no extra compensation. DO NOT agree to do more work than what’s in your job description. - Not many TLs, ETLs, and HR people care if employees are receiving their proper breaks. You can say “No” to the “Have you received all of your breaks today” question when you clock out, but nothing ever happens. - THEY DO NOT HIRE INTERNALLY. They constantly give empty promises of promotions to the HARDEST workers for years.
