Pros

I was offered a slightly higher salary because I was in university vs high school. Fellow cashiers were very willing to switch shifts to help each other out.

Cons

Unlike floor workers, cashiers' breaks are scheduled for specific times to avoid everyone taking their break at the same time, however CSMs would often change the schedules to the point where they were unreasonable. For a 5-hour shift, management would schedule breaks roughly half way into the shift but CSMs would often send us on break after being there for only 45 minutes leaving us with 4 hours of straight work.

Working weekends and holidays. It can also be hard to get PTO dates approved, at time, despite submitting far in advance.

Pros

Advancement opportunities, great at developing skills, great place to learn a skill and grow your resume, or grow with the company.

Cons

Understaffing issues negatively affects all parts of their business. However, Walmart has increased their minimum hourly rate with hopes to attract more committed employees, and retain better employees.
