Pros

Opportunities for advancement are quick depending on work ethic. Employee discounts are gratifying. Clean working environment.

Cons

Very strict working policies that leave no room for mistakes, very easy to get fired. Workloads and expectations are unreasonable during closing shifts, expect to stay later than scheduled. Business standards are run by far eastern traditions, not realistically converted to American traditions (tattoos must be hidden by staff dress at all times)

Pros

You learn a lot of the business; scheduling and payroll, labor management, how to create a daily workflow to accomplish business objectives. You're provided with detailed insights into a store's operations- it's P&L statement, total inventory and how convert key data into actionable plans. Simply put, you are challenged and will learn a lot.

Cons

Company and store experience varies greatly by store location. Unfortunately, management favoritism results in certain individuals getting better treatment and greater access to professional opportunities. Additionally, Company HR is very tepid when addressing store issues pertaining to behaviors exhibited by store management towards associates. Scheduling can be very inflexible and unaccommodating.
