Pros

This company provides good tools with competitive prices. The working environment is not bad. The benefit is not bad also.

Cons

The promotion is not bad but kind of slow. There are too many part-time coworkers which reduces the efficiency of the cooperation.

Pros

Easy work, fast pace, decent benefits and PTO for part time employees. Management was supportive. Worked with my class schedule for college.

Cons

Long hours, average to poor pay, bad schedule coverage for management in a very busy store. Expects a lot out of new employees. Archaic computer system for registers. Cashiers need to.keep track of a lot of things that could be easily computerized and it slows down business.
