Pros

10% discount.First to see new items.

Cons

Expecting to put away your department tanks while getting called to help out on the front line, taking care of customers and doing displays and changing shelves at the same time.Never enough staff in your department or other departments. During our huddle time we were belittled about not smiling or going out of way to make the customers happy while the managers and co-ordinaters had no smiles or customer serves themselves. Back stabbing and gossiping staff.
