Pros
10% shopping discount. Everyone, including managers and the "Captain", know how to, and often do perform the same tasks as the lowly crew member.
Cons
NO ACCOUNTABILITY for the majority of employees who stand around, socialize, and generally let a small minority of the crew do most of the work. LOTS OF FAVORITISM based more upon social standing/friendships than work ethic and ability. VERY LITTLE communication, as there is no real means of in-store communication (email/intranet mail, etc) other than speaking to someone directly. Even then, the message is often lost or not passed on to anyone else in management who MIGHT do something to improve the situation. Even when an issue is widely known, little or nothing is done to correct it. Unsafe working conditions given there is SUCH LIMITED STORAGE SPACE. Management sometimes ignores work-related incidents/injuries which should at least be documented with an incident report. Low hourly rate for crew ...and only small increases with time: not based uopn level of competence, title, or responsibility. Blatantly engage in age discrimination regarding annual bonus ...if you're under a certain age, you receive a bonus check every January. If you are above that age, you have no choice but to see that bonus go straight to your "pension" ...which takes 5 years to become 100% vested. So you're losing money from the first year you're an employee. Can't see how this is legal!!
