Pros

Chance to move up in the company, as a temp key-holder you would have most of the same responsibilities as the Assistant Managers but would not receive a raise. They see this a a way of "proving" yourself to the company in performing the duties that you may carry.

Cons

It could be months before they can move you up. To really prove yourself they sometimes give you a gaol that you must improve, like, increasing the items a customer buys or getting more people to sign-up for the store cards. The company has also made A LOT of new policies since going public, so if RAPID change is your enemy STAY AWAY!!

Pros

Decent hours, decent pay, assuming you're in a management position.

Cons

Lack of bonuses, and the heavy focus on 'The Shoppe' , customer service method was heavily lacking and only succeeded in making customers uncomfortable. I was told numerous times that it felt too pushy and made people hesitant to shop there.
