Pros
There's not many reasons, the only one I can think of is my fellow co-workers. There are a great group of people that work at the store I am at. I can't even say the discount is great, because it's only 10%.
Cons
The training is insufficient. I realize it's hard to effectively train everyone at Christmas time, since our staff triples during that time, but I'm sure that a new and more effective training method could be put in place, especially training on different products in the store. We carry many electronic items in the store, and most people, even those that work in the electronics section, don't have a lot of knowledge on the different products they are supposed to be able to sell. Feedback is not something that is frequently given, whether it be positive or negative. Advancement opportunities, especially at the store I work for, is not something that comes along often, and does not seem to be a priority either. At my store, it seems as though the store manager gets the right people in key positions that make him look good, and he does not move them up from there. For example, an assistant manager position opened in our store. Two supervisors that were more than qualified for the spot applied for the job. Neither one was even given an interview for the spot. The position was eventually given to someone outside of the company. Lastly, the pay is not competitive at all. Someone would probably be better off working at Wal-Mart than at TRU.
