Pros

the discount was nice to have when i wanted something that was new or prestige

Cons

I started out not having enough hours, and then as people got frustrated by their lack of hours, they started to quit, which left me with so many hours from the original schedule, being called in and others asking me to cover their shifts. I at times would work 9 hours shifts with no breaks or just one 15 minute break and I would be on my feet the entire time. There was hardly enough people on the floor to cover the cash register and do things that needed to be done, so you’re often doing it all. The general manager only cared about credit cards and nothing else. While they’re important for sales, I was really worn down and miserable due to the long shifts and being under appreciated.

Pros

Gratis There are good hard working people that want to do well. I am still there (barely) because I haven’t completely given up that things will be handled/addressed correctly for those not aligned with company vision and expectations. However after 5 years of inaction it’s hard to believe that positive change will actually and maybe just maybe Myself and others that are dedicatedI will be recognized vs taken for granted.

Cons

No furthering development Keep toxic (leaders especially) allowing unacceptable behavior conduct and violation of company code Communication is very poor…it’s inconsistent,For example managers are not provided with direct email accounts so it’s a community email box. This causes a large amount of information to be read by the wrong audience and is not communicated if read by the wrong leader
