Pros

Entery level job. Good for teens and people looking for a fun first job

Nearly impossible to move up into a better position. Depending on your district manager hours may be crunched up.

Pros

The discount is pretty good, most customers aren't awful, the CEO is very responsive and actually seems to care how the in store employees are doing.

Cons

The company will work it's management staff 20+ hour days with no help and expect an immaculate store. There is no training and in my experience the employees and managers who yell and cause low morale are those rewarded because everyone is terrified of a disgruntled employee.

Pros

You get to see cool products first.

Cons

At times I would be on call and the shift for it would be for only 2 hours. At times a regular shift would be for 3 hours.
