Pros

Loved the early morning hours. Most non-managment employees were wonderful to work with. Overall loved the work I was doing.

Cons

Noone ever knows what is actually going on. Communication is basically nonexistent. I often get yelled at by managers for doing what I was told to do by other managers. Almost a year there(longest standing employee including all of managment) and never received a raise. They cut frieght team hours and made us restock while the store was open(which ment i also had to run register) and would get angry when frieght would get behind. My store manager seemed to like to yell at people over nothing for fun.
