Pros

Benefits are decent. The pay is very good for the work. Management is very fair from the bottom levels up. They teach you skills that can pay forward in other areas of life.

Cons

Deadlines are usually very short. Everything is a manual process, nothing is automated.

Thanks for the review and we will look into your concerns about scheduling as that is typically not how a schedule should work. We understand the need to have time to rest between shifts - you are constantly moving around the store in Sales. Best of luck to you in your future endeavors. Angie Miller VP-HR
