Far from boring retail

Pros

I love coming to work. The job is always fun and I keep busy so the day goes by quickly. I love the music i get to listen to while working. The job never gets boring. The pay and benefits are okay but not exactly competitive to other companies in my area. I have learned a lot since I started working here and the schedules are flexible. The H.O. staff has always been very helpful.

Cons

Lack of promotions available for talent in my area. I have stayed because I love what I do.

Pros

None, added for five words

Cons

Everything. I was told I was paid less because I had less experience than other workers, there was 1 other worker that had more work experience than myself, that was understandable. All the others had less than 1 year experience. I was the only male besides the 2 managers. If you try and ask for a raise or fair payment, or reasons why you were underpaid, be prepared to wait a long time. No point, might as well get a job somewhere else.
