Pros

Discount on already discounted items

Cons

Little to no flexibility from management. Scheduling based on seniority. Mgmt is sexist when assigning roles. During hiring process that I was a part of, other management did want want to consider qualified candidates from other countries. Took little responsibility for themselves when in house issues arose. Did not have associates backs when customers had problems and often blamed associates. Retaliated against younger associates and newer tenured employees. Shamed associates and put them on blast if they did not adhere to mgmt standards. Zero training program at all despite being promised during to be trained properly during interview. Did not properly staff during busy seasons. Late and hurried communication by senior management (rarely were things planned well in advance).
