Pros

Headline speaks for itself, from the workers to management and all around the tasks you do at the store was definitely the top place I ever worked for in my years in retail. Every hour you're always tasked with a different section or spending the hour at the register. Miss those days but it made me who I am as an individual today!

Cons

Some tasks can feel monotonous, repetitive, etc. Other than that there's nothing to based on my experience with the company I have bad to say about.

Pros

-Great way to meet people, socialize, and learn customer service -Always tasked with different things every hour -Friendly crew who will always help you to learn and get better at your job -Get a slight pay raise every 6 months -No outside commitments and amazing benefits if you work full time (about 28 hours a week for every 6 months) -Will take time, but find your friend group, stay with them and have fun, you can't please everybody -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains

Cons

-Not many, unless you are stuck in a bad store with bad management -I had some good luck of working in 3 great stores, so YMMV -Sometimes can get cliquey like you are back in high school -Getting promoted up to store management may involve buttering up and being a "yes-person" -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains
