Pros

There are no pros working here

Cons

Not paid enough for what is required. One person has to do five jobs at once and often times there was only me and a manager working. Received little training on first day and left completely alone second day working there. SM barely does anything.

Pros

It was fun to connect with customers and hang out with coworkers

Cons

The pay is as low as they can get away with. The required rewards signups are very frustrating. Customers are always upset. There tend to be only about 2 people at the store at a time so you're expected to do a lot of work for very little pay.
