Pros

Employment, interesting work, coworkers were good people, the shop ran efficiently

Cons

Owners had everyone convinced they were going to be fired, had multiple mass firings, all of which caused employees to keep their heads down and throw blame at first opportunity.

Pros

If you are a young college student or grad, looking to to gain some practical design, print and production experience, this was a great place to start! Also teaches you a lot about multi-tasking and working efficiently with fellow employees.

Cons

Redundant work: design a help wanted sign, yard sale, generic logos, 25 sign layouts a day... Etc. repeat. The deadlines are tight with same day service... Doesn't allow much time for planning and referencing... Work quickly and may treat you like a xerox machine. Franchise operation, so don't expect more than 12-15$ to start. The benefits were not terrible, but depends on franchisee (owner).

Pros

My time at this company was a great experience overall. This was a small franchised store with a large customer base. There was a lot of new skills and experienced gained from being an employee here, and it was enjoyable to learn all the different aspects from working the front counter making inside sales and providing good customer service. The best parts were making friends with other co-workers that really helped make the day go by faster. Although the work could get monotonous at times, I can say that each day was a different day that added some diversity work wise. Work schedule is good, usually Monday through Friday. Work sometimes falls on over the weekend if there is a backlog but that's when overtime kicks in.

Cons

The pay is not the best. This is a job for someone that's going to school and wants to work part time. For full-timers, you need to put in the overtime if this is the only job that you rely on for a living wage paycheck. Some customers can be downright rude and impossible to please, but that's normal in the retail world, or anywhere for that matter.
