Starts out decent, and seems to get worse with time

Pros

- Pay rate respectable to current pay scales - Somewhat flexible with scheduling - Benefits - Regular / repeat customers - Co workers - 24 hours opens up more jobs etc. - Computerized schedules along with posted ones - Typically no one is right on top of you so you can do your job in peace to the best of your abilities

Cons

- Cliquish, snobby management (some) - Sometimes some leaders are unwilling to help junior employees with customers and the customer ends up suffering in the long run by waiting twice as long or sometimes not getting any answer by some of the less experienced employees - Unrealistic point system and time frame for lateness for breaks or shifts (most places will allow 5 min grace period) We are not allowed even 2! (1, 58 sec) (Life happens, unforeseen road closures, deaths, accidents, health issues etc.)

Pros

I'd list pros if I could think of one.

Cons

Horrible hours, no backing from management and you have to join the union.

Pros

Benefits and time off are fair for full time employees. Union pay tops out quickly forcing you into management. There is great opportunity for managers to advance.

Cons

Most are hired as part time. Very unfair . A candidate for promotion may be denied advancement based on the store manager or district manager's personal feelings towards that person.
