Pros

Hobby Lobby is a great family-oriented place to work. After working there for two years I had decided to move to Orlando, FL but I really did not want to leave. They were really flexible with their employees and treated us very respectfully and even rewarded us for jobs well done. We had went through a couple new general managers but the store transitioned well through each one. Our store had great teamwork and was one of the best in the district. Not to mention you always had Sundays off. :)

Cons

The only thing I really did not like while working there was the monthly overstock counts. I worked in the Jewelry Department and so it could be quite tiresome. Those had only started shortly before I left.

Pros

employees feel like a family, fast-paced so the days go really fast, customers are appreciative of your help, flexible schedule

Cons

could be better communication between employees and management, was told that full-time positions are hard to come by because of the $10/ hour minimum and that you had to be there three months before you could become full-time, still not sure if I'm going to be full-time or not and will have been there three months in a few weeks, doesn't seem like there is a lot of promotion within
