Pros

Nice Associates and Area Supervisors, willing to help. Hired as Seasonal and the expectations were communicated appropriately. Negotiated a hiring starting hourly pay-with much persistence on my part-I guess they really wanted me! I understand the push for Credit Cards and E-mails, that other's have complained about. These are both HUGE revenues producers for a Company and they want to keep their share holders happy.

Cons

Initial orientation was done well. Computer Based Training-too much to do in one sitting-rather boring and repetitive-after many years in retail, a group setting with interaction is much more effective and makes for a better learning experience. POS system extremely cumbersome and initial training is insufficient-especially for PT Temp holiday hires who are expected to jump in and essentially learn the system and procedures on their own. I kind of felt feed to the wolves...
