Pros

You’ll get actual full time hours.

Cons

I’ve worked here almost a year. - horrible management - HR is the laziest and most unhelpful department that I have ever seen. - If you make a formal complaint, it will not be kept anonymous, and you will likely face backlash. - Lack of proper conditions (extreme heat, extreme cold, black mold growing in the ceilings, wasp nests forming, occasionally no space to work, etc.), - Not enough pay for the work/stress you are expected to put up with - Have to make up other peoples’ slack - Have to put up with poor body odor from coworkers - They say there’s room for career advancement, but there’s not. If you want to advance, you have to memorize many numbers, policies, and even the kinds of labels you have to use for boxes. Meanwhile, they’ll hire in anyone off the street even if they don’t have experience for the position. - Have to deal with people who absolutely do not care how you feel about any of the above. - Customers are the most entitled people ever. They will call you names, literally scratch you trying to grab things off of carts/racks, and parents will let their kids mess up entire aisles and not pick it up.

Pros

Good coworkers, stable income, pretty mid

Cons

Bad, Greedy Company. Watched them treat disabled people like cheap slaves. Don't pay anyone else appropriately either. Watched poor people struggle with jacked up prices for the junk they sell. Anything nice was basically made new retail price or sent out to sell online for big bucks.

Pros

The job was easy, cashing people out and explaining deals to them. Cleaning the store when it wasn’t busy.

Cons

Low pay, people would steal or break things in the store.
