The employees and customers are really nice. Much better environment than CVS.

Pros

Competitive company with their competition, a lot of opportunities to move up in the company if desired. Internal management training openings every four months.

Cons

You hear a lot about a "customer first" mentality that doesn't get transferred to all aspects of the job. Labor hours slashed and still expected to maintain minimum customer wait times with just a few people scheduled. Management gets on you about going over scheduled hours but it's impossible to get tasks done on time being so short staffed. Corporate spends more time and money than it needs to making mandatory monthly training videos. Resources would be better spent making sure that the stores are adequately staffed and scheduled.

Pros

Fellow associates and managers are kind and understanding Plenty of hours if you want them

Cons

Constant work- no down time whatsoever as a bagger or cashier. Work is not rewarding and feels endless as customers are constantly coming in. Work is not stimulating in any way. It is completely mind numbing and boring, and sometimes depressing. Very low ceiling. From a cashier you may be able to start working at the customer service desk after a few years, besides that there is no career to be had at this position.
