Pros

This was a great place to work to bring in some extra cash for the Christmas season. The boss was easy to get along with and worked with my schedule when necessary.

Cons

It's too bad that there is a limited season for calendar sales; I would have kept working here if it hadn't been a seasonal position.

Pros

Loved the manager. Great store environment. Lots to learn and space grow freely in the retail world.

Cons

Head Office is all over the place, they think they know best but often have their own rushed deadlines that end up impacting the store negatively. They also don’t seem to think things through until after the fact.

Pros

I had a great time running a store over Christmas 2016. I had very little retail or customer service experience but the program is pretty simple to follow and I got the hang of it in a few days. After that I was off and running. It was really fun dealing with customers and I loved the product - the range of titles was amazing and well received by customers. While the hours were, at times, long the financial rewards were there for me. The local manager (Troy) was really helpful and fun to work with too.

Cons

None really. Calendar Club trains you well and also doesn't sugar coat what is involved or expected. I got out of it what I put in.
