Company went downhill

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

There's self check-out now so if you like to stand around and not do as much as physically scanning.

Cons

Company declined rapidly over the course of my time there. One of the nails in the coffin was getting rid of any creative expression allowance in the dress code. Working at a craft store and you have to wear plain colors and just overall strict. Hours are always getting cut and no one ever gets any sort of raise. Managers basically get paid the same as cashiers and are expected to run the entire store while also being understaffed.
