Fun Starter Job

Pros

The job, while being demanding in the way any retail job is, is relatively easy and fun. The team I worked with was very nice and the products were fun. Even though everything is already cheap you get 20% off.

Cons

No room for advancement and minimal hours for all non managing employees. Costumers often dissatisfied because cheap products break and there is a very strict no refund/exchange within 30 days policy. Schedule often went out late and people are not supposed to call in to ask hours.

Pros

Casual dress and zero use of brain power.

Cons

Minimum wage Workload is commiserate with a $10+/hour job. Constant schedule flip-flopping and part time hours to keep payroll down. Expected to constantly to be busy with not even a minute of downtime. From the get-go, you are suspected of being a thief.
