Pros

The customers and co-workers. My pay, although it was $1.00 less than i was quoted, which was going to attempt to get rectified.

Cons

The GM was so unprofessional , disrespectful and not very knowledgeable. She talked a good talk about teamwork and being a family, which was the farthest from the truth. She was horrible at delegating what was to be done in order to be productive. She would expect you to be on the register with " constant customer" flow which would prevent you from keeping the store tip top, yet expect you to be on the floor recovering at the "same time", all while all she did was sit in the office. The management was shady and very unappreciative.In a rush, I left my key in the office door, which was cut off from the public, looking frantically for them while the whole time the assistant manager had them and refused to inform me. (shady people). The store hasn't been open a month and already five people have quit and numerous people who attended orientation and thought they had a job never got called or an explanation of why they are not working. Sad management! My life is stress free and better without people like her and her shady minion in it. I brought some of the issues to corporate, but nothing was done. Corporate doesn't care so don't bother contacting them.
