Pros

It was a great 1st job for a 16 year old.learnd the basics of running a register,customer service. And other things

Cons

MANEGMENT WAS TERRIBLE!!!!!!! The lead manager at the store was terrible. They expect you to come in everytime they call and ask.and talk down to you when you say no.you could work open to close (ushally 9-9) and only get one 30 min in paid break.so rude when asking for days off.(it was my senior year so I needed prom,graduation and other things off..I was told "you don't need to go to that" and "your such an inconvenience) .I was working till 2am durning a school week! It was just terrible.and when they "fired" me they never told me. They just said "oh your not on the schedule for this week" overall I had a terrible experience working there.save yourself the distresss and low pay by just work at a good well known compeny.

Very nice living wage for general managers, you can truly learn alot here. Great company to work for.

Cons

Not much on terms of work life balance. Most stores are very far from the markets theyre in making travel a must.

Pros

I loved the work environment and my team was very helpful with teaching me different things.

Cons

I think the only con would be not giving that many hours.
