      Pros

      The good points include the 20% off discount and the other employees are relatively nice. The store has nice items which are pretty much easy to find. Most of the managers talk to you with respect and thank you for coming in on your on call days.

      Cons

      They change or make mistakes to your schedule a lot and don't tell you until the last minute. On call days are extremely annoying. The pay sucks (minimum wage) and they only pay every other week. Your have to make your email quota above 20% or your hours get cut back. Some of the customers that come in there make you either want to rip your hair out or run in the opposite direction. No one is full time except the managers.

      Pros

      Cool stuff....discount...loved the other associates.

      Cons

      My manager was a cruel human. When I first got promoted to part-time manager, I barely got any training. My manager threw a market plan at me and expected me to know how to read. My manager also told me to take initiative. So I would... and then she would yell at me for doing things wrong. I requested time off a month in advance to go out of town and my manager absolute ripped my head off, screamed at me, and made me cry. She also told me she would not work around my school schedule. This manager had tons of customer complaints and employee complaints, and was under investigation for how she treated people, BUT SHE DIDN'T GET FIRED! She has made numerous employees cry and belittles people. She is awful. The customers are disgusting pigs too. Stealing things that don't cost more than five dollars! And they leave trash everywhere and are rude as hell. DON'T WORK HERE!!!!!!!!
