Pros

~ Pleasent manager and coworkers. ~ Mostly pleasent customers. ~ Strong to the company's values

Cons

~ You have to be at least 18 years old, which is fine until you realize the pay. ~ Low pay, the contract says we get paid minimum wage. That doesn't even cover rent, unless I worked outside the mandated PT hours. ~ No OT. The company would ask of stuff to be done, but it could only get done if I worked OT, which the company frowns upon. ~Often relieved late and expected to be OK with it. I was told I could take a 20 minute break (basically close the store for 20 minutes) and my relief would reopen it, but the company did not like the store being closed during business hours, so I often was late to my after work job. ~Really pushed over-the-top goals on employees and expected them to do better than the goals. Often resulting in counseling/training when said goals were not met. ~Couldn't change my avalability after working there for over a year. ~ I signed up for medical insurance during the open enrollment period, only to find out my information was lost and I was dropped. ~ I had applied for a corporate position that alligned better with my career path and was told to inform my manager so they can look into it. I hadn't heard about it in months so I asked. Was told the position was likely filled and to find another role, the news was given with a tone like brushing dirt off the shoulder/not my problem. ~ I applied for a another position and the higher ups seem to have been dragging their feet when selecting their canidate. I found out the day after I handed in my 2-week notice that they appointed someone else.
