Co-Manager

Pros

Great for employment right out of college to gain management experience.

Cons

They are revolving door for co-managers they have no interest in retaining employees. It is the worst position in the company. It would be better to be an hourly employee than a Co-Manager. They give free reign to Store Managers to harass, berate, and treat co-managers like pieces of trash. They are used to pick up all slack for the hourly employees and half of the hourly employees make more money than the co-managers. If you like to be used and abused in order to gain management experience this is the place for you.

Not a bad job

Pros

The work is really easy, so it's quick to catch on to. They'll almost always hire you as long as you pass a drug/background check. They offer great benefits, even for part-time employees. Benefits are cheap because of the union. Weekly paychecks are a nice luxury

Cons

It's retail. You have to love retail to enjoy it. Late/early hours, repetitive job. Can get boring if you don't make it fun yourself.
