Pros

Very flexible with scheduling since almost everyone is part time. Definitely a family of co-workers. For toys r us off season is great for getting hours.

Cons

Pay is low aside from holiday season. Schedules posted 2 days before following week at times. Expectations of workload are at times unbearable. Babies R Us - a lot of furniture being unsafely handled due to lack of man power as well as damages to the furniture because of it. Hours per week changes constantly from 15-35 which is unacceptable to anyone needing to pay bills. Lack of proper training.

Pros

Best job ever, I was able to play with toys all the time. I usually stayed late to open boxes, and play, then I put them back in boxes like nothing happened and then go home, my wife always thought I was cheating because I was late, sometimes 3AM, but I just can't stop playing with toys, it was awesome.

Cons

My wife didn't like my job. She hated when I was late.
