      Store experience Depends on the individual manager

      Pros

      WONDERFUL customers (craft people are nice) Lots of skills can be gained Very family-like atmosphere with the first manager of my store--2nd manager, nice, but different employees where hired--so entirely different store.

      Cons

      Differing managers account for differing store experiences Relatives of current store management can get hired VERY quickly and promoted too (this is only a con if you are not a relative--but it's a wonderful pro/opportunity if you are to show and to learn that you have what it takes to be a manager. IF you can get into management, that's a great learning opp.

      Good place to get experience

      Pros

      There is a lot of experience to be had working in the framing dept of Hobby Lobby. Of course, I am still new. So far it's good experience. Sundays off. Closes at 8p.m.

      Cons

      Can get hectic and a bit chaotic. Been warned that customers can get very upset -- as in any retail job for that matter. Lack of regular weekly scheduling makes it hard to plan around.

      Not what I expected

      Pros

      Close to home, closed on Sundays

      Cons

      There are no "set shift" hours. It's very difficult to manage a family (set appts, etc) when schedule rotates wildly from week to week. If a day off is requested in advance, that day is given off ALONG WITH whatever days off management was planning to schedule, so work hours are lost.
